Hello,

1)
There is an inconsistency with the documentation [1], which claims that mutex 
and condition variables
need to be explicitly initialized with the *_init functions.
The implementation however checks the state via a flag and calls *_init if 
necessary, and the program below works correctly.

2)
There is some further issue, if you depend on the "lazy initialization", 
demonstrated by running the
program below with an argument. This case can happen for example if some 
subsystem was removed
before being used (never needed the lock).
In other words, the "lazy initialization" scheme is working with lock/unlock 
but not with destroy.


#include <assert.h>
#include <pthread.h>

int main(int argc, char const *argv[]) {
        pthread_mutex_t mymutex = PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP;

  if (argc == 1) {
    assert(0 == pthread_mutex_lock(&mymutex));
    assert(0 == pthread_mutex_unlock(&mymutex));
  }
  assert(0 == pthread_mutex_destroy(&mymutex));

  return 0;
}
