It's only failing on OSX? Every time or only sometimes?

OK, let me see if I can find - I do add a mutex in there (src_page_req_mutex)
that I guess is the most likely culprit; it's initialised by
migrate_get_current (once
using a bool) so it should be OK.
If you can find a way to get a backtrace off that qemu_mutex_lock case
that would be great; I'd assume the later errors are the fall out from that.
