Well, you've said it yourself: It's a transaction problem, so it should be
solved with transaction control. Use a database with transaction control
like MySql with BDB tables.
Or you could try with MySql's locking functionality. If your
script/connection dies, the locks are released (AFAIK). But don't use
persistent connections then.
