> In testing the 0.89.20100830 rc, I ran into a deadlock with the following situation:
> - All of the IPC Handler threads are blocked on the region lock, which is held by CompactSplitThread.
> - CompactSplitThread is in the process of trying to edit META to create the offline parent. META happens to be on the same server as is executing the split.
> Therefore, the CompactSplitThread is trying to connect back to itself, but all of the handler threads are blocked, so the IPC never happens. Thus, the entire RS gets deadlocked.
