[fpc-pascal] Does FPC has anything like TCriticalSection.Acquire with timeout?

[Dennis]

If a CriticalSection can acquire (but with a timeout), it can avoid any 
gridlock.

I googled and Delphi seems to have function which does time out
function  MonitorEnter(const  AObject:  TObject;  Timeout:  Cardinal  =  
INFINITE):  Boolean; How can I do the same in FPC? Dennis
