Changes (by danielk):

  * milestone:  unknown => 0.25


Comment:

 This dates back to at least 0.22 so it must be fairly uncommon to hit it.
 But obviously it should be fixed. The locking for whole the class needs to
 be reviewed. There should be a locking order and no recursive locking so
 we can use one of the existing locks for the wait condition.
