I am curious about whether it started out with pthread_mutex uses
and lost them along the way, or whether that difference between unx
and w32 is primordial.

You made me look :).  Apparently sal/osl/w32/profile.cxx sprang
primordially from the earth on 2010-01-29.  I have to believe there
was an older one, possibly named profile.c but deleted and not shown
in the bitbucket.

BitBucket does have the original w32 profile.c, and I accidentally found a way of accessing it. This may be useful for other software archeology expeditions. It may not be the best or simplest way, just something that works.

Begin from https://bitbucket.org/mst/ooo340/src/8b564af029aa60259c0d133d7dc37468ef56e4b5/sal/inc/osl/profile.h

Select the initial import version of profile.h. Now you have BitBucket thinking back to 2000.

Go up to ooo340/sal, and down again to ooo340/sal/osl/w32. You will now see the list of w32 file names as they were in 2000, including profile.c rather than profile.cxx.

The original profile.c includes a log going back to "Revision 1.1 1997/07/17 11:02:31".

Do you read German? Some of the log entries are in German, and I don't have much faith in machine translation of very short snippets of technical material.

There are mentions of "locking" but I am reasonably sure that means file locking rather than pthread_mutex.
