+The bug report said that the *first* time the app was run it came back
+as not-created -- clearly wrong, but not happening in svn
+
+I don't see how we can get this 100% correctly. If an application gets
+killed hard, we are going to have to rely on the GC to clean up the
+mutex. On windows, since this is kernel level stuff, the kernel can
+keep track of it.
