Comment #5 on issue 15891 by a...@chromium.org: implement showModalDialog on  
mac & linux
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15891

As a general rule: we don't use named transient resources on Linux (or Mac,  
since
it's often the same code). Those APIs are a hangover from a previous age  
and are
generally impossible to clean up correctly in the case of a crash.

When I first did WaitableEvent on POSIX, I thought that the idea was that  
we would
rework things so that we got rid of cross-process events on all platforms?  
If that's
not the case, I'll have to figure out exactly what's needed and see if I  
can figure
out a good way to build it. Mac, which doesn't support anonymous  
semaphores, needs
the most thought here.
