> Currently the build system recognizes if PTHREAD_RECURSIVE_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP is available, and uses it only if detected. If it is not available, PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER is used instead. Only on Solaris and BSD, the code revers using constructors to call pthread_mutex_init with proper attributes to create recursive mutex.
> This logic is wrong. PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER is not guaranteed to create recursive mutex. Please do that assumption only on GLIBC or other C-libraries where this is a known fact.
> Current code is broken assumably on non-GLIBC systems not explicitly listed. One notable example is musl c-library based Linux systems.
