Yes Locke was less understanding than usual (even though he told Charlie to be patient and that regaining trust might take a while, and he didn't spill the beans to Claire about the statues) but his reaction makes sense, because he helped Charlie to become clean in season 1, and Charlie kept lying and lying through the episode.
Why "lock up"? Well Locke is the box man as he said once, so he goes on doing his job in a way... Also the buried hatch and also that cellar could be a metaphor of the urges, the fears, the demons they have. It would be too easy to make them vanish, you have to live knowing they are still there, somewhere on the inside. And of course what is lockep up can be un-locked too...
Now thinking of the dialogue between Locke and Claire, I wonder if there wasn't some clue when Locke mentioned the spiritual insurance that the baptism gave.
You know, I have a theory about the survivors actually being in a coma, and all of the Island events being a collective projection of their minds...so maybe, somehow, Charlie got that they were in danger indeed, and as he's religious, Aaron's soul was at stake.
