  a method to make semaphores less error prone. The WITH_SEMAPHORE()
  macro will block forever for a semaphore, and will automatically
  release the semaphore when it goes out of scope

  Note that we have two types of semaphores. A normal semaphore can
  only be taken once. A recursive semaphore allows for the thread
  holding the semaphore to take it again. It must be released the same
  number of times it is taken.

  The WITH_SEMAPHORE() macro can be used with either type of semaphore
