I left in uloop_cancelled primarily to deal with cleaning up recursive
requests after Ctrl+c or SIGTERM when uloop is in use.

I think the main problem was the fact that uloop_cancelled was used
both for internal request termination and also for external use.
Here's a patch that should resolve this issue, please test:
