Condition variables are only compatible with interprocess_mutex. I think 
they have no sense with other types of locks, because a mutex and a 
condition variable should know each other. In POSIX, condition variables 
are not compatible even with POSIX recursive locks, not to mention user 
defined locking primitives.
