I hope it's worth the effort, it's a lot of complexity

One of the things which worries me is that detecting errors will be
hard, you end up with a locked server that can be far from trivial
to debug.
I'm really wondering how we could automate testing or at least ease the
debug,
Exactly my sentiment.
We really do need some sort of automatic code analysis, maybe
using CIL, as Dan suggests.
Even something really simple would help:
I found myself wishing emacs would highlight and graphically-connect
matching lock/unlock pairs in the same function, which would make it
easier to see any unmatched ones.
