I think I may have run into something similar with VM mutexes, but need
to sit down and perform more in-depth testing to be sure about this.
It does appear as though WITNESS only checks the name of the mutex, not
the address of the mutex, which would presumably be a suitable key to
differentiate them uniquely.
