fix for issue #217
The issue is that client can run into a situation where an inactive client call(e.g. due to vi aborts) will end up signaling the lv occurrence from async thread for an active client call(occurrence is getting re-used) and "wait for occurrence" unblocks without reading the response from server and we will see no response for the active call.
The fix involves clearing the active client calls list on vi abort and signal occurrence only when the current call is active. This fix will work for most cases but it still can run into some race conditions.
