-/* Problem 1-3: Priority Scheduling tests.
+/* The main thread acquires a lock.  Then it creates two
+   higher-priority threads that block acquiring the lock, causing
+   them to donate their priorities to the main thread.  When the
+   main thread releases the lock, the other threads should
+   acquire it in priority order.
