Hi Di-Shi,

where do you exactly add the lock? In the tm module, or in the AVP list 
implementation? Could you please post a patch of the changes you did, so i 
can take a look? 

We've tried to implemented a bugfix too, but it don't seems work for all our 
test cases yet. It would be really nice to have a fix for this problem in the 
trunk.

Thank you,

Henning
