One straightforward way is to use dispatch_semaphore. IIRC it’s lightweight 
unless it blocks (that is, unless its count is zero when you wait), so it’s 
good for this situation where actual contention is rare (assuming actual 
contention is rare).

If performance is not a consideration, you can use @synchronized instead. It’s 
marginally easier to use.
