Questions:
Are we asserting that
UNBLOCKED_SIGNAL_QUEUE() != 0
then
WaitForSingleObjectEx(0)==WAIT_OBJECT_0
If so, we can put this assertion in. Seems there is some race. In
pg_queue_signal(), we do it like this:
enter_critical_section();
mask the signal;
leave_critical_section();
SetEvent();
That is, we may detect the value first before we got event. So at least
the above assertion is not correct. This may cause other problems, just
for a quick feedback.
