   <p class="footnote"><small>[<a name="fn-4" href="#fnd-4">4</a>]</small> this <code>checkoutDelay</code> defaults
to half the tree-stable timer, but it can be overridden with an
argument to the Source Step</p>

   <p class="footnote"><small>[<a name="fn-6" href="#fnd-6">6</a>]</small> Also note that a clever buildmaster admin could still create
the opportunity for deadlock: Build A obtains Lock 1, inside which
Step A.two tries to acquire Lock 2 at the Step level. Meanwhile Build
B obtains Lock 2, and has a Step B.two which wants to acquire Lock 1
at the Step level. Don't Do That.</p>
