Coverity complains that ECPGdebug is accessing debugstream without holding debug_mutex, which is a fair complaint: we should take debug_mutex while changing the settings ecpg_log looks at. In some branches it also complains about unlocked use of simple_debug. I think it's intentional and safe to have a quick unlocked check of simple_debug at the start of ecpg_log, since that early exit will always be taken in non-debug cases. But we should recheck simple_debug after acquiring the mutex. In the worst case, calling ECPGdebug concurrently with ecpg_log in another thread could result in a null-pointer dereference due to debugstream transiently being NULL while simple_debug isn't 0. This is largely hypothetical, since it's unlikely anybody uses ECPGdebug() at all in the field, and our own regression tests don't seem to be hitting the theoretical race conditions either. Still, if we're going to the trouble of having mutexes here, we ought to be using them in a way that's actually safe not just almost safe. Hence, back-patch to all supported branches.
