[Mac OS] Thread Mutexes non-recursive?

[GWRon]

While looking in the sources I also saw this in blitz.mod/blitz_thread.c:

blitz.mod/blitz_thread.c defines different types for mutexes along linux, mac, haiku ...
#if __linux
#define MUTEX_RECURSIVE 1
#elif __APPLE__
#define MUTEX_RECURSIVE 2
#elif __SWITCH__
#define MUTEX_RECURSIVE 1
#elif __HAIKU__
#define MUTEX_RECURSIVE 3
#endif

which is used as param for pthread_mutexattr_settype : https://linux.die.net/man/3/pthread_mutexattr_settype

The enum is defined this way:

/* Mutex types.  */
enum
{
  PTHREAD_MUTEX_TIMED_NP,
  PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE_NP,
  PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK_NP,
  PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP

So for Mac OS it uses ERRORCHECK while Linux uses RECURSIVE.

Does it mean that on Mac OS you cant recursively lock the same Mutex (from the same thread)?
@HurryStarfish am not sure if it was you on Discord but somone told me that one should be able to do recursive mutex locks in BlitzMax ... so I am now asking if this really is the case.
