This should work as long as you execute all three SQL commands in a
single transaction; otherwise the FOR UPDATE lock isn't being held long
enough to do what you need. I'm not sure of the behavior of doSelect
and doUpdate, but I wonder whether they aren't issuing each command as a
separate transaction. I'd expect to see a "begin" kind of operation at
the top of this fragment, and a "commit" kind of operation at the bottom...
