--- Comment #2 from Dima Tisnek <dimaqq at gmail dot com> ---
What I was looking for was using same condition variable from two processes
that don't have a parent-child relationship.
There's a solution at http://stackoverflow.com/a/35511763/705086 that uses
pthread_xxx primitives with PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED flag on a mmap()ed region.
I was hoping to use futex primitives more directly, but sheer number of corner
cases makes that impractical.
