BTW, forgot to say that this isn't true in R5. R5's _BAppServerLink_ class 
(which is used for communication in every libbe class) doesn't lock the 
BApplication, but uses a different lock called "main session lock", which I 
think is a static BLocker. Maybe that's why R5 works (in this case) and haiku 
does not.
