I don't see where it says that it should return a value. Note that the
synapsis give is exactly what works with NetBSD:
pthread_mutex_t mutex = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
and the description says:
In cases where default mutex attributes are
appropriate, the macro PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER can
be used to initialise mutexes that are statically
allocated.
Especially note the "statically allocated".
