Dear Mike:

Well, it shouldn't be related, but sometimes things get tricky with locking if 
it turns out that extra locking at one layer was masking a lack of locking at 
another.  Let's try to diagnose this one a bit more before concluding that is 
the case, though.  I take that the same problems don't happen if you boot a 
vanilla version of the same rev of the kernel?  What command did you use to 
generate the list at the bottom of your e-mail?
