 Named mutexes work fine as far as I know, the only issue is that they
 dont automatically destroy themselves yet.  But surely any app that
 uses them for synchronisation has to be able to cope with another
 instance having already created the mutex?
 
 Fixing this is in progress; it has been bumped by other tasks though.

+I agree with your comments. Sometimes an application needs to know 
+if it is the creator of the mutex or not. This is useful for knowing 
+which instance of an application was running first.

+I will try and wait patiently for the fix.:o))
