I think this is the same bug, as the problem is, once it manifests, the
actual problems it causes are delayed down the line until we hit a
situation that is _caused by_ the bug but somewhat detached from it.
In fact Bert and Mikhail hit the same thing with a process locking up in
this path AND in that a lock is held that really makes no sense.
As Liam says, this is a one-line change [0], could you try taking it and
seeing? It has already been taken by Andrew, but we delay our hotfixes by a
week or two so isn't in -rc yet.

I suggest first trying [0] :) if that doesn't fix things then we will
definitely want to dig in further.
