And this worries me, because guard() makes it harder to see
where locks are nested and the scope they apply to. At least with
lock/unlock pairs the scope of the critical sections and the
nestings are obvious.
So, yeah, i see that there is a bit less code with these fancy new
macros, but I don't think it's made the code is easier to read and
maintain at all.
Just my 2c worth...
