+Bug fixes

+---------

+

+* sem_getvalue() now returns the correct value under Win NT and WinCE.

+- Rob Fanner  <rfanner@stonethree.com>

+

+* sem_timedwait() now uses tighter checks for unreasonable

+abstime values - that would result in unexpected timeout values.

+

+* ptw32_cond_wait_cleanup() no longer mysteriously consumes

+CV signals but may produce more spurious wakeups. It is believed

+that the sem_timedwait() call is consuming a CV signal that it

+shouldn't.

+- Alexander Terekhov  <TEREKHOV@de.ibm.com>

+

+* Fixed a memory leak in ptw32_threadDestroy() for implicit threads.

+

+* Fixed potential for deadlock in pthread_cond_destroy().

+A deadlock could occur for statically declared CVs (PTHREAD_COND_INITIALIZER),

+when one thread is attempting to destroy the condition variable while another

+is attempting to dynamically initialize it.
