If I'm not mistaken, syncache_timer calls syncache_respond, which then
goes and interacts with the routing table and ip stack.  Along with the
rest of the non-locked code, it sure looks like it's not-MPSAFE to me.

It seems "obvious" that the code isn't giant-free, given that there are no
locking assertions in it whatsoever.
