Not sure what you mean by this, Binyamin.  

My understanding, which might be incorrect or incomplete, is that WAIT sets 
the wait bits, stores the RB address in the ECBs, sets the wait count in the 
RB and puts the task in a wait state.  At that point, isn't WAIT finished?

POST sets the post bit, clears the wait bit, decrements the wait count if it 
is greater than zero, then if it is zero, makes the task dispatchable. 
The ECBs are not reset.
