   continuously in two threads can be quickly seen tripping this problem.
   crypt() is pretty slow normally, so a mutex shouldn't add much overhead.

   glibc has a thread-safe crypt_r, but (in version 2.3.2) it runs a lot
   slower (about 5x) than plain crypt if you pass an uninitialized data
   block each time.  Presumably there's some one-time setups.  The best way
   to use crypt_r for parallel execution in multiple threads would probably
   be to maintain a little pool of initialized crypt_data structures, take
   one and use it, then return it to the pool.  That pool could be garbage
   collected so it didn't add permanently to memory use if only a few crypt
   calls are made.  But we expect crypt will be used rarely, and even more

   multiple cpus.  So for now we don't bother with anything fancy, just
