This problem was already ignored for 8 months. Unless we boost priority, this problem will be ignored for years. Jens, can we test this patch?Sorry, it's just that I _really_ hate this patch. We're making up a weird locking primitive that tracks the process, with a weird unlock helper that only unlocks if it's the process that is holding the mutex. I'll try and think about this a bit, it would be nice if we had a better alternative than the above.
