 *
 * @brief A class for creating mutual exclusions.
 *
 * If the mutex is deallocated while being held, it throws an
 * @ref OFStillLockedException. While this might break ARC's assumption that no
 * object ever throws in dealloc, it is considered a fatal programmer error
 * that should terminate the application.
