* Code within this library which accesses protected data should
* instantiate a Mutex object while doing so. Notice that there is
* only one coarse-grained lock which applies to this entire library,
* so keep locking short and sweet.
*
* For example:
*
* void Function(int arg1, int arg2)
* {
* static Object* foo; // Shared read-write object
* Mutex mutex;
* foo->Method();
* // When 'mutex' goes out of scope and gets destroyed here
* // the lock is released
* }
*
* Note: Do NOT use the form 'Mutex mutex();' as that merely
* forward-declares a function returning a Mutex. This is a common
* mistake which silently slips through the compiler!! */
