Yeah i dunno either.  Maybe trylock isn't implemented in valgrind's
'hacked pthread lib' (as it calls itself).

FWIW with this disabled, certain things simply don't work running in
valgrind.  Although they could point to code bugs.  When you try to do
autocompletion, it always complains that its getting stuff out of
sequence.  i.e. i think it gets responses before the call returns.
(which is definetely a code bug if thats what happens - this is in
eds/evo code though).
