It's a lot nicer to just to the #ifdefs inside the header. Is there a
specific reason to do it this way?

We need some documentation on what the lock does, either here or in the
changelog.

That panic() is making me nervous. Is this bisect-safe? Is it safe
because there are no callers of this function yet?
