wxmutexlocker

this is a small helper class to be used with wxmutex objects. a wxmutexlocker acquires a mutex lock in the constructor and releases (or unlocks) the mutex in the destructor making it much more difficult to forget to release a mutex (which, in general, will promptly lead to serious problems). see wxmutex for an example of wxmutexlocker usage.
