just a question:
Should semaphores be on the thread manager?
because imho they are not realy thread related? They can be used by
threads, but they have lot's of other uses. Even communication between
processes of different applications. They are usually grouped together
with other IPC like msg-queues and shared-mem.

True and False. :) It was recommended to me that I use the methods
directly from the thread manager, then later it was not recommended.
It's because there is no cross-platform guarantee for any of the
thread manager routines (i.c., the semaphore ones are only implemented
for Unix platforms).
