I seem to recall (though I might be wrong) that win32 events can be
signalled before the thread calls WaitForSingleObject (or
WaitForMultipleObjects), and if it was signalled, the call returns

Right, the equivalent to a windows event is a D Mutex, Condition, and a
protected boolean. In other words, the condition aids synchronization of
a message, but it is not the message itself! Windows events could serve
as the message (but not necessarily).
