Review comment:
       Hmmm. Here we're protected by the sessionLock, but signalAuthFailure 
synchronizes on the future. Three points here:
   
   1. I don't think signalAuthFailure needs to synchronize at all. It could 
just do
   ```
   if (future != null) {
     future.setException(t);
     signalled = t == future.getException();
   }
   ```
   Or am I missing something?
   
   2. There still might be concurrency issues here. If a concurrent 
signalAuthFailure sets the exception on the initial authFuture after line 127 
has been executed but before the assignment in line 128, the exception would 
still be lost. At the very least this would need to be
   ```
   AuthFuture previous = authFuture;
   authFuture = ValidateUtils.checkNotNull(
       authService.auth(serviceName), "No auth future generated by service=%s", 
serviceName);
   Throwable caught = (previous instanceof InitialAuthFuture) ? 
previous.getException() : null;
   if (caught != null) {
     ...
   ```
   But even that won't help yet since a concurrent signalAuthFailure might 
still get the value of authFuture before the assignment (thus getting previous) 
but execute the setException() after our getException().
   
   3. Since several threads may access authFuture, it should be at least 
volatile. The synch on sessionLock does protect changing the field, but there's 
numerous unsynchronized accesses to it. So what's the purpose of synching here?
   
   In summary, I don't think this is correct. Part of the problem is the 
additional indirection through that InitialAuthFuture, and missing synch on 
authFuture.
   
   I'll try to come up with something later.

Review comment:
       I wonder... how about throwing the exception right away? (Wrapped in an 
IOException.)
