posix rwlocks were a part of the UNIX98 specification. that's 1998 ... it
is now 2012. using a compiler and/or glibc that doesn't support a feature
from 24 years ago ... not worth anyone's time.

and ironically, its almost certainly just a header file issue. i strongly
suspect that the glibc version on these systems has these rwlocks, but the
headers are not exposing it for various reasons.
