Robert Middleton commented on LOGCXX-537:
-----------------------------------------
Since the recursive mutex makes things work on all platforms(at least according
to the tests), I'm inclined to switch it back to that based off of your PR. I
have no idea why the recursive mutex would fix it though, it seems quite
strange to me.
I'll see about updating that in the next few days.
