Change locking to be less fine-grained: just lock the watcher while we're processing an event, so we're operating on a consistent "snapshot".
This is basically how it worked before 16df002. Moving some of bookkeeping to a separate "helper struct" was a good idea; doing the locking in that struct wasn't.
