That's why you have to document very well the architecture and the
locking policy.  For example, why can't replay_run_event (or something
that it calls) take the replay lock locally, when it writes to the log?

If you do not document the architecture, we run in circles with me
asking possibly stupid questions and you thinking that my questions are
stupid. :)
