We used to memset the dispatch_data prior the receiving the message in
the old code. Do we need to do this prior to the cslib_dispatch_recv()
call? I don't think it is strictly necessary.

I'm asking because I had trouble with this today. The quick-and-dirty
changes to the msg service weren't sufficient, and the old memset was
still in-place. Also, the mutex lock/unlock needed to be shifted
around. We should probably review the other services' dispatch code.
