Synchronized is supposed to remove the top level shared qualifier 
(but keep it for every indirections) withing member functions. 
Member function also acquire a mutex before doing anything.

is a relaxed version of the change that we are discussing here, 
which ensure the same level of safety, but with smaller breakage 
involved.
