It's having a central one-time called routine executing CreateMutex.
This can be DllMain, *if* used as DLL, but that's certainly no solution
for static linkage. This would require some PQinitThreadStuff() routine,
which may be called only once (and ultimately can't check for that
itself, if you don't trust a static var).
