Thomas has been proposing to add an #error when !GOMP_MUTEX_INIT_0 into
target.c, so that means break build of libgomp on all targets where
config/posix/mutex.h is used.  That includes --disable-linux-futex on Linux,
and various other targets.

No, I think the GOMP_MUTEX_INITIALIZER case is better.
All pthread targets need to support PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER, and the other
config/*/bar.h implementations are GOMP_MUTEX_INIT_0 1.
So, config/posix/bar.h would
#define GOMP_MUTEX_INITIALIZER PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER
config/linux/bar.h would
#define GOMP_MUTEX_INITIALIZER { 0 }
and
config/rtems/bar.h would
#define GOMP_MUTEX_INITIALIZER {}
// or something similar.
and then just initialize the file scope locks with that static initializer.
