I don't know how this might relate to 
<https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15119> (see 
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-01/msg00084.html> and 
<https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-ports/2013-02/msg00021.html> and the rest 
of that thread).  But my preference for how to address this is definitely 
to move to unifying lowlevellock.[ch] files across as many architectures 
as possible - which requires someone to understand the differences and 
produce a careful analysis that shows what the best form for generic files 
is and what cases actually require architecture-specific files to override 
those generic files (preferably overriding only the bits that need 
overriding).
