[PATCH] avoid potential Logger deadlock in SIGQUIT and SIGUSR1

If any combination of SIGQUIT and SIGUSR1 are sent to a
Rainbows! worker in a /very/ short period of time, the Mutex
used by the default Logger implementation may deadlock since
Mutex synchronization is not reentrant-safe.
Users of alternative logger implementations (or monkey-patched
ones) are possibly not affected. Users of the logger_mp_safe.rb
monkey-patch distributed[1] with unicorn are not affected.

I've pushed to rainbows.git I haven't seen Rainbows! hit it,
but I've encountered this elsewhere.
I don't have anything else for a bit, so maybe I'll just
release 4.3.1 tonight. Anybody have any other outstanding issues?
