Re: pthread_mutex_lock call hangs

FWIW, you can create PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP mutexes (see the man
pages for pthread_mutexattr_init and pthread_mutex_init) to have the
'thread trying to lock the same mutex twice' case detected.

This will help find 'duh' errors in one thread, not solve real deadlocks
(for those, I find it's a matter of looking at all the threads under gdb
and finding which code sections are holding which locks in which threads).
