Comment (by pulkomandy):

 Well, the error with the locking is not that you're not allowed to do
 somethig. It's that there's major failure in the locale kit code somewhere
 (and should never happen anyway). So we can just return B_ERROR in that
 case, as it's not going to happen that often. B_NOT_ALLOWED is not
 fitting, it would give the user a message like "permission denied", which
 isn't the problem here.
