There was talk of adding process shared mutex support into the 6.x release,
that doesn't appear to have happened.  

Is there a current project to add that support into 7.x ?
 
Specifically, I am looking for the pthread_condattr_setpshared and
pthread_mutexattr_setpshared interfaces for use by BerkeleyDB.
