cc #2793
After trying to analyze the problem, I've decided to leave it to future-me.
It is very complicated to determine which entries in the list of "blocks known by a source" should be kept and which can be thrown away. There are several other TODOs related to that in the code.
For now, this PR fixes the sync stalling.
