Consider the following -std=c++20:
#include <pthread.h>

constinit pthread_mutex_t foo = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;

With g++ 12.4.0, this succeeds, but with clang 20.1.6 it fails:
pthreadtest.cpp:3:27: error: variable does not have a constant initializer
    3 | constinit pthread_mutex_t foo = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;
      |                           ^     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    3 | constinit pthread_mutex_t foo = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER;

      |                                             ^
1 error generated.

It seems the standard disallows this sort of cast pretty comprehensively.
Is there some way that Cygwin's pthread initializer macros can be made
compatible with constinit?
