Improve handling of pthread_mutex_lock error case

sfrost · sfrost · commit 8359ed806f33 · 2013-08-01T15:42:07.000-04:00
We should really be reporting a useful error along with returning
a valid return code if pthread_mutex_lock() throws an error for
some reason.  Add that and back-patch to 9.0 as the prior patch.
