The fact that the description of the lock is "<NSRecursiveLock: 0x16c2340> 
'(null)'" makes me suspect that you're synchronizing on a nil pointer, i.e. 
that when you call
        @synchronized(foo) { ... }
the value of foo is nil. I'm pretty sure that's illegal, and I would have 
thought it would throw an exception, but maybe not. Try putting a check above 
the block, something like
        NSAssert(foo!=nil, @"no foo");
