The statement timer starts running first; the lock timer only starts
to run when we begin to wait for a lock. So if the session goes to
sleep for > 1 second in between those events, this is unsurprising.
There are a bunch of tests in timeouts.spec that are unreasonably
slow because the timeouts have been whacked until even very slow/
overloaded machines will pass the tests. Maybe we need to tweak
this one too.
