Please add more logging and/or locking. Note that the elogind has the
following comment in its locking implementation in
/gnu/store/dm2ri0qvjirl0iq2ndfk5z9lq9dyk4jf-elogind-241.3-checkout/src/basic/user-util.c:
/* This is roughly the same as lckpwdf(), but not as awful. We
* don't want to use alarm() and signals, hence we implement
* our own trivial version of this.
*
* Note that shadow-utils also takes per-database locks in
* addition to lckpwdf(). However, we don't given that they
* are redundant as they invoke lckpwdf() first and keep
* it during everything they do. The per-database locks are
* awfully racy, and thus we just won't do them. */
