In that case, this requires another fix from the documentation department.
Currently the doc on wxSemaphore reads

If maxcount is 1, the semaphore behaves exactly as a mutex.

Anyway, I'll try to find a way to work around all of this in my code. I
briefly looked for other mutex-implementations, most notably Boost's, but
they seem to suffer from the same problem.
