No it really doesnt work. its running a configure time test on your build host ( which I assume is x86_64 mostly now
a days) and then deciding that process shared mutexes work, which is not correct.

If we think that it should work on x86_64 then lets cache the value to ‘yes’ but not leave it
at the mercy of configure.
