> The usage of exclusion list during RPC call is not thread safe. In some conditions, requests are executed on excluded members. 
> Please find enclosed a program that reproduce the reported problem.
> h5. Program scenario:
> First statements create a permanent opened channel with an RpcDispacher.
> The remaining represents a loop that creates a channel with an RpcDispatcher, makes an RPC call where exclusion list contains the caller and finally disconnects the channel.
> The program stops when the request is handled on the caller. Few iterations are needed to reach it
> h5. Observation:
> At the called side, the exclusion list is checked by the RequestCorrelator ([instruction here|https://github.com/belaban/JGroups/blob/3.3/src/org/jgroups/blocks/RequestCorrelator.java#L356]). 
> The condition that supposed ignore request fails because RequestCorrelator has a null local_addr
