[fpc-pascal] RTL semaphore supported?

[Nico Neumann]

It's not implemented yet, see https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=37440.
For unix systems the pthread.inc already contains the API headers for the
sem_* functions (
https://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/rtl/linux/pthread.inc?view=markup&sortby=file#l183)
but for Mac OS X 10.4.8 the dynamic loading of sem_init needs to be
implemented (
https://svn.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/trunk/rtl/darwin/pthread.inc?view=markup&sortby=file#l71)
and also another way to init a semaphore.
For Windows, see
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/sync/using-semaphore-objects.
