Not working;  Error: constructor core.sync.mutex.Mutex.this 
core.sync.mutex.Mutex cannot be constructed at compile time, 
because the constructor has no available source code

I have synchronization problems with this one. Even when I 
prepend __gshared Mutex mutex in this case.

As you can see beginning is not what I expect to get.

you missed that in documentation. just use 'shared' or 
'__gshared' to
get "real" globals.

Thank you for clearing this up. If I understand correctly, 
__gshared is more of a hack to get C-like global variables, 
whilst shared is typed shared variable and more preferred?
