Better description of protection mutator context module in the "porting" chapter.
The generic thread manager mustn't assert that there is only one thread -- this would break design.mps.thread-manager.req.register.multi.

Rename lockreleasempm to lockrelease. this name was changed because of a clash with a symbol in scriptworks, and that's no longer a concern. see < https://info.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/import/2001-09-27/mminfo/doc/meeting/general/1997-02-19 >. if we get symbol name clashes in future, we can try the .name.single strategy, or maybe objcopy --prefix.
