First, ignore my prior remark about time stamps in the future. This is
expected. It is the way locking determines when a lock expires.

What happens if you do something like the above, but before the CGI
times out you look at the locks and then look for the PID?

I.e., if you looked at the locks and saw the above, do

ps -fww 25650

to see some detail about the process that has the lock while it's still
there.

It appears that the CGI is not responding for some other reason and when
killed by the web server, it leaves the list locked. So locked lists are
not the cause of the problem, but another symptom of the problem
whatever that might be.
