Functions include pthread_mutex_init, pthread_mutex_lock, pthread_mutex_unlock and pthread_mutex_destroy. Perhaps it would be a good idea to use boost/thread/pthread/mutex.hpp. It appears to have more stability and throws lock exceptions where appropriate. Use of BOOST_ASSERT would also be a good idea so developers can learn the point of first failure quickly without resorting to debugging."
