Rolled out with the rest of today's threading fixes, which broke WebKit2 on Mountain Lion.

I don't know if this particular change caused any trouble - there was so much churn today that I could't tell which patch caused which badness. Perhaps we should simply re-land if we can get EWS green.

I think that r161163 was a follow-up fix to this.

Why is this a unique_lock instead of lock_guard?

Unique locks are used together with std::condition_variable.
