According to Sim Simeonov, who was at one point the lead developer on the CF
Server team, IsDefined is in fact a variable read, and must therefore be
locked.
It makes sense, when you consider that you're enumerating the Session
structure to find the variable, I suppose - you are in fact reading the
contents of the Session structure.
