I'm sorry about any confusion that Matt Dillon has caused. I told him in
person that he shouldn't worry about the mutex implementation since I
already had some working mutex code which could be reused to implement the
BSD/OS 5.0 style mutex. This somehow mutated into "I'll break the alpha
port until further notice". I will be working on the alpha SMP code, both
old-style and new-style.
