 *	locks in that they maintain a count instead of a simple locked/unlocked
 *	state.  Threads block if the semaphore count is less than one.
 *
 *	Note:  Semaphores are almost always a bad idea.  In general, cleaner
 *	and more flexible code can be implemented with condition variables
 *	instead.  Indeed, the semaphores below are implmented using
 *	condition variables indicating that condition variables are the
 *	more fundamental synchronization object.
