My workaround implementation of pthread_once (in gnulib) looks like this:

  /* This would be the code, for
       typedef struct
         {
           pthread_mutex_t mutex;
           _Atomic unsigned int num_threads;
           _Atomic unsigned int done;
         }
       pthread_once_t;
   */
  if (once_control->done == 0)
    {
      once_control->num_threads += 1;
      pthread_mutex_lock (&once_control->mutex);
      if (once_control->done == 0)
        {
          (*initfunction) ();
          once_control->done = 1;
        }
      pthread_mutex_unlock (&once_control->mutex);
      if ((once_control->num_threads -= 1) == 0)
        pthread_mutex_destroy (&once_control->mutex);
    }

It makes sure that
  - The last thread that had been dealing with the mutex deletes
    the mutex.
  - Once the mutex is deleted, is it never again accessed. The
    entry test of the 'done' boolean ensures this.

Bruno
