It works this way, however a workaround is not required, since this is
not a production environment; I can wait until you find and fix the
problem (if there's any).

Thanks for the advice anyway.

I'm thinking that it seems the problem arises only with multiple
posix-locks instances. Which is not a surprise in itself, because to do
proper locking this way, the locking information between each instance
should be synchronized at any and all times, which cannot be guaranteed
if AFRs ask them for locking in different orders. But if the orders are
the same, there should be no problem.

Is that correct? Just to make sure I'm not bothering you with some very
dumb thing...

Thanks,
