The pthread mutex contention profiling and lock order verification
entry on the ideas list caught my eye.

I'm looking for a potential mentor, and any ideas or suggestions about
what's desired in such a tool. The ideas page lists jeff@ as a
contact, but I've not gotten a response as yet, so does anyone have an
interest in this, and maybe some suggestions?
