Summary:                    [patch] deadlock in app_queue with use_weight during
reload
Description: 
There's a deadlock possible in app_queue if the use_weight global variable
is set, and someone reloads app_queue at the right point in time while a
call is coming in. The call's thread locks the queue list lock, but doesn't
unlock it, resulting in a dead lock when other threads try to do anything
with the queue list.

To reproduce easily, add a sleep() between the first if (use_weight) and
grabbing the lock.

I'll attach a patch that fixes the problem by using a local variable to
store a copy of use_weight.
