One catch is epicsMutexLockWithTimeout. There is no pthread_mutux_lock with a timeout.
I just got done talking on the phone with Jeff. We both think the solution is to get rid of epicsMutexLockWithTimeout. It is only used in two places in base and both are in diagnostic routines.
Unless I hear major objections epicsMutexLockWithTimeout will be removed. Marty
