multicast seems to be unreliable

See original GitHub issue

This issue is based on my comment here: https://github.com/cujojs/most/issues/207#issuecomment-194845872

I have this stream which stops emitting events to all subscribers (some still get the event) when I add multicast:

most.fromEvent('visibilitychange', document)
  .map(() => !document.hidden)
  .startWith(!document.hidden);

I’m currently trying to reproduce a minimal test case for this. Interestingly adding forEach to the stream that stops receiving events makes it work again (with multicast).

That’s great news, @maxhoffmann. I’ll work on getting this into 0.19.1 by monday.
