No, and no. It's unfortunately too late for Abhijit's patch to make it
into 8.2; it was't submitted until last week, I believe.
So userlocks will be in pgFoundry for the next rev -- frankly, it should
have been for 8.1 but I forgot it. For the 8.3 version, as Tom has
indicated we may want to change the API somewhat anyway, so we'll want the
pgFoundry version for backwards-compat.
