No objection. One question, rather than prefixing the bulleted list of return
codes with a "-" which has no ReST meaning I could find, should we use "*"
instead which would be converted to a bullet it formatted documentation?

e.g.

 * Return:
 *  *  0 - ready to wait
 *  *  1 - acquired the lock
 *  * <0 - error
