What does return from the handler passed to gm_directed_send_with_callback 
signify?  I would be nice if it signified that that the data sent was in 
the receiver space but I suspect it only signifies that that the data has 
left the sending NIC.  Also, gm_directed_send_with_callback (or 
gm_send_with_callback, for that matter) returns as soon as its arguments 
have been written to the NIC, which is almost immediatedly, right?
