Just a thought on this subject: the mutex implementation that Qt uses in the 
ports build -- at least on amd64 -- is the generic posix one, which is very 
slow for the purposes its put to. That might make comparisons difficult, as we 
need to distinguish amd64 from i386 from portsbuild from built-by-hgand 
(where, for whatever reason, the assembly-based mutex implementation is 
found).
