If you want to discuss concerning ACE, please use
PROBLEM_REPORT_FORM and send a report to ace-users
forum or onto my private address - not to boost forum.
It refines the problem and makes our discussion
subject-oriented without useless emotions.

Secondly, no need to re-invent a wheel again. If you
want reliable signaling between threads on Windows,
use the HANDLE-based Win32 mutex instead of playing
around "CRITICAL SECTION" implementations in your
wrapper class. Do not forget to mention about core of
the Win32 pseudo-mutex class as it did in ACE. 

Take care
