Confirmed. I'll investigate.

This sounds like a problem with the parent process holding the event
object connected to the lock. This doesn't happen in the second case,
because the parent holding the lock disappeared as well.

Pity. When I created the locking code I added lots and lots of comments
in the hope that
a) other people would have a chance to understand how the code is
supposed to work and
b) *I* have a chance to understand how the code is supposed to work
after not looking at the code for a year or longer...
