On second thought, these values are strange.  Is PC really at the
memcpy line?  I don't see how dot could be NULL at that point: if
lock_if_free returns a negative value, lock_info.dot cannot be NULL,
according to my reading of the code.

What is the contents of lock_info.user upto the first null byte?
