I understand that.  But I have seen a lot of use of robust mutexes 
lately, and I'm sure these developers aren't aware that the mutexes 
aren't portable across GNU/Linux (the Linux architecture subset 
supported by glibc).

I expect it's like the missing accept4 system call—you need to provide 
the set_robust_list system call in the kernel if you want to a working, 
modern system.

Thanks,
Florian
