Any thougts?  Is a 60% performance increase for the common case of acquiring an 
uncontested lock worth doing?

Btw, for our console game I also opted for non-semaphore based locks in 
thread_pthread.h, because our console profilers were alarmed at all the kernel 
transitions caused by the GIL being ticked....
