+ *
+ * Approach
+ * --------
+ * We know that static mutexes will not be PROCESS_SHARED
+ * so we can serialise access to internal state using
+ * Win32 Critical Sections rather than Win32 Mutexes.
+ *
+ * If using a single global lock slows applications down too much,
+ * multiple global locks could be created and hashed on some random
+ * value associated with each mutex, the pointer perhaps. At a guess,
+ * a good value for the optimal number of global locks might be
+ * the number of processors + 1.
