Near enough that we've moved on.  I suspect we'll cover this ground 
again either right before or after submission of BTL, but it's stable 
enough right now.  However, I'm not sure that this library must 
follow the same interface in order to be accepted, since the 
interface may change by the time this library is submitted.  As long 
as the mutex/guard are hidden as implementation details here I'd say 
nothing else really matters.  So everything else can be left up to 
the implementer.
