This is pretty nasty.  I think de-rallocing this file might end up nicer
(we'd need a destructor that frees type->name and type->fields.whatever,
and a hash walk that calls it in _mesa_glsl_release_types and frees the
key string), then mutexes would only be needed for the structure/array
hash table inserts with no recursion issues.

Does that sound reasonable?
