Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment:

Questions:

- why does _cond_timed_wait() decrement n_waiting *twice*?

- why does _cond_timed_wait() use InterlockedDecrement()? it doesn't protect 
against regular accesses to the same memory location, since it isn't guarded by 
the mutex

- why don't you simply pass NULL as the third parameter to ReleaseSemaphore() 
in _cond_signal()?

- I don't understand what you call "possible race condition" in _cond_signal(). 
_cond_signal() is currently always called with the corresponding mutex held, by 
the way. We could add a comment to make it mandatory.
