Not to worry, it looks like somebody else added in the mutex - I never
looked at the code that closely, I just kept seeing it in one of my less
used CVS trees :-).

But anyway, I still think that we should move all this mutex stuff into
cli_full_connection().  That way we pick up *all* connections, not just
those that happen to be from places we think might be racing us.  Now we
can't pick up unprivileged users here, but it's better than nothing.
