Do you get the same kind of behavior with lanes that don't do
os.execute? For example, if you do:

local lanes = require "lanes".configure(1)
print( os.date())
local linda = lanes.linda()
lanes.gen("os,base", function() linda:receive(10, "null")
print("finished_sleeping " .. os.date()) end)()
lanes.gen("os,base", function() linda:receive(10, "null")
print("finished_sleeping " .. os.date()) end)()
lanes.gen("os,base", function() linda:receive(10, "null")
print("finished_sleeping " .. os.date()) end)()
lanes.gen("os,base", function() linda:receive(10, "null")
print("finished_sleeping " .. os.date()) end)()

Maybe this is related to the way os.execute works?
