Follow-up Comment #3, patch #6353 (project duplicity):
> It looks to me like failures need to be handled properly
> (a try/finally around the asynch operation,
Backend failures are not currently handled, so this change should be ticketed
and patched separately.
> and some added book keeping to propagate the failure to
> the front-end thread waiting on the result).
Note that the busy spin in the lock wrapper is there to maintain the behavior
of exception handling.

This patch is intended to be small, easy to understand, and suitable for a
point release.
