[M3devel] joinMu vs. t.join?

[Tony Hosking]

Because the mutex has disappeared into the untraced Activation.  I  
suppose I could have Thread.T also extend MUTEX to permit it, but it's  
overkill to do so.  How much contention  would we expect from threads  
all joining at exactly the same time?  An alternative is to implement  
Join natively rather than in the Modula-3 space.
