I don't think that it's safe to do the operations that latch_poll()
and latch_set() do without synchronization.  I suggest putting a lock
around those two whole functions.  (Probably, one global lock is
plenty.)

Thanks for the review.  We're still working on the clean pthread porting.  For now, I don't have mutex available. Can I do that later?
