 *
 * NOTES
 *
 *    Currently, semaphores are used (my understanding anyway) in two
 *    different ways:
 *      1. as mutexes on machines that don't have test-and-set (eg.
 *         mips R3000).
 *      2. for putting processes to sleep when waiting on a lock 
 *         and waking them up when the lock is free.
 *    The number of semaphores in (1) is fixed and those are shared
 *    among all backends. In (2), there is 1 semaphore per process and those
 *    are not shared with anyone else.
 *                                                        -ay 4/95
