OK, glad you got to the bottom of it! But, I don't think this error (NPE) is particularly clear (though it is better than pre-2.1 which, I think, would in fact let the writer run without holding the write lock). I will open a Jira issue for this. I think we should explicitly detect when the IndexWriter is used after being closed.
