Upgrade Crossbeam

[pythoneer]

Do we have an easy way to upgrade crossbeam to a version >=0.4.1?

As i see it, the current version that is being fetched (3.2) has the "ability" to double-free. Nothing that i am affected by but just as a suggestion. I just get a waring by "cargo-audit" that this version of crossbeam that is pulled by a2 is affected by this:

crossbeam-rs/crossbeam-epoch#82

Ha, yeah. It's quite easy it seems, at least this compiles with very small changes.

Our company crashed and I have no apple devices now to test, so feel free to try the master branch with 51ba18a

Ah well updated to 0.3.6 with Crossbeam 0.6. If you have any issues file another ticket! Thanks for auditing and reporting!

Works perfect! Thanks for the fast response. Sad to hear that, i hope you're doing well regardless. Do you plan to still maintain this (and related) crates? I am quite happy with the current state of those.

[pimeys]

Yes I'll maintain them as a hobby, still planning to go to the async/await syntax with all crates.

Working soon for prisma.io as a Rust engineer, so it worked out quite well.
