On Windows, the write to log file is done by a thread (whose main

causing a race condition due to an error in the way we are using the related
critical section.
It seems this commit never made it to the release notes. A customer came asking for the fix to this very problem, and although we know that the issue has been fixed, we could not refer him to the release notes. All we could suggest was to do the minor upgrade.
I could not find any more reports of this bug after the fix was committed. So what would it take to make release notes say that it has been fixed?
