Quoth John Birrell on Thu, 23 April:
:
: It blocks. pthread_mutex_trylock is the one that doesn't block.
: Which man page says otherwise?
This is amusing. pthread(3) says otherwise:
int pthread_mutex_lock(pthread_mutex_t *mutex)
Try to lock a mutex, but don't block if the mutex is locked
by another thread, including the current thread.
But *only* if I use xemacs 20.3's (manual-entry "pthread(3)").
My apologies for the noise. The elisp clean-up code is apparently broken.
