Yes because I posted to current@ at least a week ago and no one responded. :)  
The patch is at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/patches/ste_locking.patch and it 
should apply ok to HEAD.  It might not apply to 6.x, but I'll go try to get 
the other printf changes merged back to 6.x so that the patch should apply 
and work ok on 6.x as well.  I'm not sure if the patches will apply to 5.x.
