Why can't the mutexes for continuations simply use test-and-set. We
only ever try to lock them (and requeue the continuation if lock is
not available), correct? Since it's hard to be sure in TS when a
continuation does or does not need a lock, it would be nice if one
could be used defensively wit
Because having the locks be recursive is a critical feature due to the tail
recursion used in event handling. And there are places (in other threads)
where blocking locks on Continuations are used.

I don't see the relevance of recursiveness, a non-block lock can be
recursive. What "other threads" do you mean? Are the blocking locks
rare enough that we could implement them with brief usleep() and a
retry?
