hi Greg, yep these mechanisms exist, this is the first things that you
implement when you write a lock system no matter on what: islockable
and islocked

try to understand, what you do (if you use a lck object (locked))
if your lock object has been created, a lock has been aquired
when you create a lock object,  the lock system test it for you

Hmm... I've found this in the sources to xnu, but I can't find this in
the Kernel.framework. Perhaps I should have mentioned that I'm
writing a kernel extension. Does this exist for kernel extensions,
and if so how do I access it? Right now I'm just linking against
Kernel.framework, which doesn't seem to have this header.

Thanks!
