While looking at Darwin's os_defines, I wondered whether _GTHREAD_USE_RECURSIVE_MUTEX_INIT_FUNC was really still necessary. On checking the OS, it seems that it was a transient problem that only appears in Darwin11. Earlier versions do not have the initializer, and the operation is fixed in Darwin12+. So, I figure we still need the workaround for Darwin8-11 but not later versions (patch implements this).
Testing on both earlier and later systems does not (as one might expect) reveal any differences (we still have some lock-related tests that 'twinkle' so that there can be something still hidden by that). Anyway. the question is. "is there any reason not to use the system version of this where it works, or should I just leave the status quo?" If the former, then "ok for master?". thanks Iain -- >8 -- The problem described in pr 51906 was fixed in the next OS release. Limit the workaround to systems that need it.
