When looking for a way to debug the deadlock in #395 I stumbled across this advisory:
https://wiki.sei.cmu.edu/confluence/display/c/POS04-C.+Avoid+using+PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL+type+mutex+locks
In the end it didn't detect the deadlock (which is not a proof of it not existing) but I'll leave the PR here for your consideration. Might be helpful in the future..
