If I have 2 mutexes locked, and I have a condvar for each one, is there an easy way to wait for either condvar to fire? I want to leave holding both locks again, and with (at least) one of the condvars having been signaled.

    Redesign? Without knowing much about what you want to do: Try using one mutex and multiple condvars. If you want to wait for either condvar make a third condvar that is fired whenever the first one or second one is fired (or something like this).
