Yes, that does seem right. Previously it would never be concurrently
modified, because it was always locked by the critical section, but now
we read it without locking, and we certainly don't want that optimized
away.

The mask is only ever written by the main thread, never by the signal
dispatching thread. So I think that one could do without.
