Hmm, this works only for one task if I'm not mistaken (a suspension
object allows only one blocking call to Suspend_Until_True at the same
time, a protected entry seems to have similar constraints). A solution
would be a suspension object per task, but this is far from the elegance
of HAL/S' signals.
