Yes. Every Object (and everything derives from object) has a built-in 
mutex. "synchronized" methods and blocks acquire the mutex on entry and 
release it on exit.

Hmm, that's using the Java introspection API. C++ doesn't have anything 
like that. I don't think a verifier for an arbitrary class is possible. 
You'll need to make each class call verify for each of its verifiable 
members. Maybe verifiable could take a parameter of a collection to add 
itself to so this is easier.
