      Probelm:

      See https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/master/src/mongo/db/commands/rename_collection.cpp#L113

                  Lock::GlobalWrite globalWriteLock(txn->lockState());
      

      Solution:
      Scope this lock as a DB_X when renaming within a database. Renaming between databases probably still requires a G_X or perhaps two DB_X locks.
