Sure, run time failure needs to be considered. Falling back from PTHREAD_PRIO_INHERIT to PTHREAD_PRIO_NONE is relatively safe.

What we really need is recursive mutexes. Removing the pre 1995 compatible code (older than VxWorks 5.5, yay) would simplify the implementation a lot. As long as we document the drop of support, I think we are fine.
