// Change Log:
//    8 Feb 01  WEKEMPF Initial version.
//   22 May 01  WEKEMPF Modified to use xtime for time outs.
//   23 May 01  WEKEMPF Removed "duration" timed_waits, as they are too
//                      difficult to use with spurious wakeups.
//    3 Jan 03  WEKEMPF Modified for DLL implementation.
