I have xautolock and slock installed, and have tried to use this:
xautolock -time 5 -locker slock
for those times I walk away and forget to engage slock.
But it doesn't work.
Any idea why?

No, but I can offer a solution. Try xscreensaver (and related). If
you run Gkrellm, you can use Gkrellshoot to lock it at the click of a
button, or it can be set up to autolock after inactivity.

OP should also fill a bug report in order to get this fixed.
