This brings me to something related: I'm wondering if we shouldn't merge
unix/win32_latch.c. If we go this route it seems like the amount of
shared infrastructure will further increase. The difference between
win32 and, say, the select code isn't much bigger than the difference
between select/poll. epoll/win32 are probably more similar than that
actually.
