Actually, both are true, but your suggestion is clearer.

Yes. Now that record chill/thaw works, we still have a problem with
index chill/thaw. This assert in SRLUpdateIndexes::thaw() fails:
ASSERT(type == srlUpdateIndex)
It happens reliably with the falcon_chill_thaw stress test, with or
without concurrent record chill/thaw. I'd like to talk about it soon...
