Hi, for 2x start it is IMO correct that it blocks the next execution, but still it would really be up to upstream to use a improved cleanup. OTOH it isn't critical enough for Debian or Ubuntu to carry a delta to upstream all the time - so really it would be great if you as the finder of this issue could report there.
I think they still use sourceforge at [1] if I checked correctly.
