But that should not have happened before because the code deliberately iterates 
backwards, thereby starting with the last frame, thereby growing the table at 
most once. (I agree that dropping and re-acquiring the lock every time was 
sub-optimal).

This was not an error before. Does mapping 0 frames really need to be a failure?

That name is confusing. 'last_frame' perhaps (and then make the -1 implicit)?

Erk. Could we avoid this casting nastiness by putting a loop in each switch 
case. I know it could be considered code duplication but this is a bit icky.

Since you deliberately grew the table first, could you not drop the write lock 
and acquire it a read lock before looping over the frames?
