I cannot answer about that without looking a bit deeper into the code; 
apparently something is going the way you describe, because 
bdb_entry_get is using a boi->boi_txn if available, and it is passing 
DEADLOCK/NOTGRANTED errors back to the caller, if appropriate. In any 
case, it seems that no problem is occurring right now.

Of course, I'm speaking of HEAD.
