that doesn't seem sane to me.  or even valid.  alpha has a uint32 and
a uintprt_t.

struct kmutex is MD-defined.  i don't know of a good way to check
this without a helper.  we have to compile machine/mutex.h with and
without __MUTEX_PRIVATE defined, and compare their sizes.  it seems
way to ugly to try to do this in a single C file (you'd have to
#undef all the sys/arch/foo/include/mutex.h's #ifdef _FOO_MUTEX_H,
but it would work i think...)
