*
* Description: named semaphores for interprocess
* synchronization
*
* Unrelated processes obtain access to a shared semaphore
* by specifying its name.
*
* Our goal is to support named semaphores on at least
* Unix and Win32 platforms. The implementation will use
* one of the three native semaphore APIs: POSIX, System V,
* and Win32.
*
* Because POSIX named semaphores have kernel persistence,
* we are forced to have a delete function in this API.

* If the named semaphore doesn't exist and the PR_SEM_CREATE
* flag is specified, the named semaphore is created. The
* created semaphore needs to be removed from the system with

*
* If PR_SEM_CREATE is specified, the third argument is the
* access permission bits of the new semaphore (same
* interpretation as the mode argument to PR_Open) and the
* fourth argument is the initial value of the new semaphore.
