If you're #including <mutex>, haven't you locked yourself into C++11 (or better) anyway? In that case, you should use curly braces for your initializer (or at least stop saying `using namespace std;`).

For existing code where `mutex` is a global variable, you'll be fine. If you add

  #include <mutex>
  using namespace std;

to existing code, you'll get a compiler error because the name `mutex` is now ambiguous.

If you wanted to warn about this in *all* cases, you'd need an additional warning to detect function declarations in local scope, since that's what C++ would treat this as. Clang doesn't have such a warning, but perhaps you could convince someone to add it.
