[issue20154] Deadlock in asyncio.StreamReader.readexactly()

[Guido van Rossum]

New submission from Guido van Rossum:

There's currently a deadlock in StreamReader.readexactly() -- if the requested size is larger than the buffer limit for pause, the transport may be paused with no way to unpause it.

See http://code.google.com/p/tulip/issues/detail?id=99 in the Tulip tracker.
