 The new io-layer is now merged, so I'm closing this bug as fixed.

+I ran the test code on a dual G5 and it appear not to be fixed.  When
+the test code runs, a thread does a mux.WaitOne() (mux being a mutex).
+ When it obtains the mutex, the thread prints out 5 characters.  There
+are multiple threads that do this in multiple processes.  The output
+should be something like this:
+
+-----
+00000
+|||||
+
+if you ever see a line like this:
+
+0_0|0|0|||0
+
+then the mutex is not preventing multiple threads or processes from
+obtaining it.
+
+Before the new io-layer was merged, this test would lock up.  Now it
+doesn't lock up, but I see mixed characters which indicates the mutex
+is not working.
