+ * Portable condition variable support for windows and pthreads.
+ * Everything is inline, this header can be included where needed.
+ *
+ * APIs generally return 0 on success and non-zero on error,
+ * and the caller needs to use its platform's error mechanism to
+ * discover the error (errno, or GetLastError())
+ *
+ * Note that some implementations cannot distinguish between a
+ * condition variable wait time-out and successful wait. Most often
+ * the difference is moot anyway since the wait condition must be
+ * re-checked.
+ * PyCOND_TIMEDWAIT, in addition to returning negative on error,
+ * thus returns 0 on regular success, 1 on timeout
+ * or 2 if it can't tell.

+/* The mutex is a CriticalSection object and
+ The condition variables is emulated with the help of a semaphore.
+ Semaphores are available on Windows XP (2003 server) and later.
+ We use a Semaphore rather than an auto-reset event, because although
+ an auto-resent event might appear to solve the lost-wakeup bug (race
+ condition between releasing the outer lock and waiting) because it
+ maintains state even though a wait hasn't happened, there is still
+ a lost wakeup problem if more than one thread are interrupted in the
+ critical place. A semaphore solves that, because its state is counted,
+ not Boolean.
+ Because it is ok to signal a condition variable with no one
+ waiting, we need to keep track of the number of
+ waiting threads. Otherwise, the semaphore's state could rise
+ without bound. This also helps reduce the number of "spurious wakeups"
+ that would otherwise happen.
+
+ Generic emulations of the pthread_cond_* API using
+ earlier Win32 functions can be found on the Web.
+ The following read can be edificating (or not):
