Buildfarm member prairiedog crashed on today's HEAD with this:

TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(FastPathStrongRelationLocks->count[fasthashcode] > 0)", File: "lock.c", Line: 1240)

I have the core file, and gdb says:

Since this machine has only been running the buildfarm for a week,
I rather imagine we will see more of these. Thoughts?

(This is a PPC machine, but only a single processor, so it's hard
to see how memory ordering issues might enter into it ...)
