Hi Mike,

I'm not sure of this is the final wanted shape for Semaphore>>critical
(From 6755SemaCritical):

critical: mutuallyExcludedBlock

	"Evaluate mutuallyExcludedBlock only if the receiver is not currently in
	the process of running the critical: message. If the receiver is, evaluate
	mutuallyExcludedBlock after the other critical: message is finished."

	| blockValue caught |

	caught := false.
	[
		caught := true.
		self wait.
		blockValue := mutuallyExcludedBlock value
	] ensure: [caught ifTrue: [self signal]].

	^blockValue


There was a bit of discussion about putting the "caught" flag AFTER the
wait.  Something like:

		self wait.
		caught := true. "signal the flag just after we got the semaphore"


See http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/123504 for an
explanation from Andreas.

Cheers,

-- Diego
