* Description: named semaphores for interprocess
* synchronization
*
* Unrelated processes obtain access to a shared semaphore
* by specifying its name.
*
* Our goal is to support named semaphores on at least
* Unix and Win32 platforms. The implementation will use
* one of the three native semaphore APIs: POSIX, System V,
* and Win32.
*
* Because POSIX named semaphores have kernel persistence,
* we are forced to have a delete function in this API.
