/* Setting the context to another function does not work if the thread is
waiting in WFMO. For instance, a thread which waits for a semaphore in
sem_wait will call cancelable_wait which in turn calls WFMO. While this
WFMO call is cancelable by setting the thread's cancel_event object, the
OS apparently refuses to set the thread's context and continues to wait
for the WFMO conditions. This is *not* reflected in the return value of
SetThreadContext or ResumeThread, btw.
So, what we do here is to set the cancel_event as well. This allows the
WFMO call in cancelable_wait and elsewhere to return and to handle the
cancel request by itself. */
