-"""Mutual exclusion -- for use with module sched
-
-A mutex has two pieces of state -- a 'locked' bit and a queue.
-When the mutex is not locked, the queue is empty.
-Otherwise, the queue contains 0 or more (function, argument) pairs
-representing functions (or methods) waiting to acquire the lock.
-When the mutex is unlocked while the queue is not empty,
-the first queue entry is removed and its function(argument) pair called,
-implying it now has the lock.
-
-Of course, no multi-threading is implied -- hence the funny interface
-for lock, where a function is called once the lock is aquired.
