Willy Tarreau 3de3cd4d97 BUG/MINOR: proxy: always lock stop_proxy()
There is one unprotected call to stop_proxy() from the manage_proxy()
task, so there is a single caller by definition, but there is also
another such call from the CLI's "shutdown frontend" parser. This
one does it under the proxy's lock but the first one doesn't use it.
Thus it is theorically possible to corrupt the list of listeners in a
proxy by issuing "shutdown frontend" and SIGUSR1 exactly at the same
time. While it sounds particularly contrived or stupid, it could
possibly happen with automated tools that would send actions via
various channels. This could cause the process to loop forever or
to crash and thus stop faster than expected.

This might be backported as far as 1.8.
