    Since these functions are local to pbx.c, declare them static. Also use 
"static" on the function definitions.
    
    Since the new lock is a mutex, why do you have read and write lock 
functions?

    I don't understand what this is supposed to be doing. This lock doesn't 
actually protect anything. I suspect this may narrow the window of the race 
condition but it seems like whatever dangerous operation was occurring can 
still occur since that dangerous operation is not surrounded by the lock.
