Comment (by gigem):

 There won't be any mutex playing within myth_system.  The mutex unlocking
 and locking goes around the call to myth_system.  I don't see a problem
 with this as long as the code handles the unlikely case that another
 thread acquired the mutex and changed something while myth_system was
 running.  I already have a patch to do this for the startup command.  I
 still need to look at the shutdown command.
