A while ago Eliot mentioned some mutex primitives.  I didn't follow up
then, but maybe now is the right time to try these.  I can't find the
post, but looking just now I found some likely candidates at [1]:
- 185 primitiveExitCriticalSection
- 186 primitiveEnterCriticalSection
- 187 primitiveTestAndSetOwnershipOfCriticalSection

However I can't find any image side code in Squeak or Newspeak.
