Actually. Yes. You are right. I went back and checked the code. That
section of the code (lmt_load_config() ) is before we acquire the lock.
So based on how many events trigger, you will see equal number of
messages. But only one among them will be allowed to proceed further.

So I see this behavior fine. Do you have a different idea on how you'd
like to see it behave ?
