I'm not pulling this. It seems stupid.
Why isn't the fix just this (whitespace-damaged, cut-and-pasted)
one-liner instead? I may be blind, but as far as I cal tell, there's
exactly one single place we do that "giti ddebug_cleanup", and it
wants to unlock the mutex, so we should just move the unlock down one
line instead.
Hmm? Is there some hidden magic going on that I can't see?
