Returns:

A boolean indication of success

Examples:
Mutex Creation and Destruction
<?php
/** You cannot use the "new" keyword, a Mutex is not a PHP object **/
$mutex = Mutex::create();
/** You have the physical address of the Mutex **/
var_dump($mutex);
/** Always destroy mutex you have created **/
Mutex::destroy($mutex);
?>

The above example will output:
