In Linux, you can get a piece of shared memory, put a posix semaphore in
there, and use it amongst independent processes. This is done by setting
the second parameter of sem_init() to 1. In FreeBSD this functionality is
not supported (at least the last time I looked).
Does anybody on the list know if shared semaphores are supported in
Mingw64?
