I'm not sure either. If we weren't at the tail end of a devel cycle,
with a large/destabilizing patch already in there that has a great deal
of exposure to details of locking behavior, I'd not be so worried.
Maybe the right thing is to bounce this back to be reconsidered in the
first fest of the next cycle. It's not ready to commit anyway because
of the portability problems, so ...
