The where clause limits the number of rows returned to 1 only. Only some
primery keys are affected. For example, "Select * from table where pk=1"
works and returns only one line but "select * from table where pk=2" locks
and there is only one line with pk=2 in the table. I believe it is triggered
by something else.
