   * This implementation is optimized for locking threads that are
   * in the same process.  It maps to <CRITICAL_SECTION>s on NT
   * and <ACE_mutex_t> with <type> set to <USYNC_THREAD> on UNIX.
   * ACE_Thread_Mutex is recursive on some platforms (like
   * Win32). However, on most platforms (like Solaris) it is not
   * recursive.  To be totally safe and portable, developers
   * should use <ACE_Recursive_Thread_Mutex> when they need a
   * recursive mutex.
