Hi William, We have a bunch of changes on the lutex branch that are nearing readiness but are not quite there. I'm optimistic that we can get things in shape for inclusion in time for the 0.9.14 release. Things seem to be working well on linux (for testing, not that we would really use lutexes instead of futexes) and Solaris, but there are a couple of lingering problems on MacOS X, and FreeBSD is quite a ways off due to OS kernel panics. It would be great if folks could take some time to review the changes on the branch. I'll be sending another email with detailed status of the lutex branch and the ports that use it, but I figured I'd chime in while we're doing the month's release planning.
