So my conclusion is mono can not be used on FreeBSD, because process
sharable mutex and condition variable are not supported. it is possible
writting a special version of mutex and condition variable for mono by
using kernel umtx code, but now umtx is also broken by a FEATURE
called swappable kernel stack, otherwise, someone can just pick up
code from my private pthread library,
http://people.freebsd.org/~davidxu/libthread.tgz
in the library, mutex and condition variable structure can be put on
shared memory segments, there is no pointer in the structure, only
counter and some bit flags.
