Please don't top post or over-quote on this list. Read the policies at http://www.boost.org/community/policy.html#quoting

If your code used C++ rather than C, the problem would be easier to resolve. Constructors, destructors, and other member functions would ensure proper lifetime management, encapsulate a lot of logic, and declutter the API functions.

One thing I did notice: your wait loops can easily exceed the supplied timeouts.
