Wondering what's meant by "correct ordering" here.  Bar() can finish
before Foo() and yet debug.log can report "I did Foo" before "I did
Bar" for whatever thread-scheduling reasons happened to make that the
case.  Or Foo() and Bar() can execute together in complete concurrency
and it's just the LockedDebugMsg() picking an arbitrary "winner".
