In essence, on linux (and other pthread systems) it is simply a wrapper
for pthread_mutex_lock() so it will be served in whatever fashion the
host implementation of pthread_mutex_lock is handled. Fltk is not really
doing anything fancy here at all.

(In practice, there's a few bits to do with whether you have support for
recursive mutex's and so forth, but nothing that sounds like it would be
the root of your problem...)
