We should probably think about getting rid functions that set a lock and
return, requiring the caller to call a cleanup, *in general* in all of
our perl code.
Scope guards or functions taking closures would be somewhat safer.
However, since this is perl, a `die` can get thrown in at *any* line (eg
from a timer signal handler), and fixing that is a different beast...
