    \threadsafe
    \brief The TQWaitCondition class allows waiting/waking for conditions between threads.

    \ingroup thread
    \ingroup environment

    TQWaitConditions allow a thread to tell other threads that some
    sort of condition has been met; one or many threads can block
    waiting for a TQWaitCondition to set a condition with wakeOne() or
    wakeAll(). Use wakeOne() to wake one randomly selected event or
    wakeAll() to wake them all. For example, say we have three tasks
    that should be performed every time the user presses a key; each
    task could be split into a thread, each of which would have a
    run() body like this:

    \code
    TQWaitCondition key_pressed;

    for (;;) {
	key_pressed.wait(); // This is a TQWaitCondition global variable
	// Key was pressed, do something interesting
	do_something();
    }
    \endcode

    A fourth thread would read key presses and wake the other three
    threads up every time it receives one, like this:

    \code
    TQWaitCondition key_pressed;

    for (;;) {
	getchar();
	// Causes any thread in key_pressed.wait() to return from
	// that method and continue processing
	key_pressed.wakeAll();
    }
    \endcode

    Note that the order the three threads are woken up in is
    undefined, and that if some or all of the threads are still in
    do_something() when the key is pressed, they won't be woken up
    (since they're not waiting on the condition variable) and so the
    task will not be performed for that key press. This can be
    avoided by, for example, doing something like this:

    \code
    TQMutex mymutex;
    TQWaitCondition key_pressed;
    int mycount=0;

    // Worker thread code
    for (;;) {
	key_pressed.wait(); // This is a TQWaitCondition global variable
	mymutex.lock();
	mycount++;
	mymutex.unlock();
	do_something();
	mymutex.lock();
	mycount--;
	mymutex.unlock();
    }

    // Key reading thread code
    for (;;) {
	getchar();
	mymutex.lock();
	// Sleep until there are no busy worker threads
	while( mycount > 0 ) {
	    mymutex.unlock();
	    sleep( 1 );
	    mymutex.lock();
	}
	mymutex.unlock();
	key_pressed.wakeAll();
    }
    \endcode

    The mutexes are necessary because the results of two threads
    attempting to change the value of the same variable simultaneously
    are unpredictable.

    Release the locked \a mutex and wait on the thread event object.
    The \a mutex must be initially locked by the calling thread. If \a
    mutex is not in a locked state, this function returns immediately.
    If \a mutex is a recursive mutex, this function returns
    immediately. The \a mutex will be unlocked, and the calling thread
    will block until either of these conditions is met:

       signalled). This function will return FALSE if the wait timed
       out.

    The mutex will be returned to the same locked state. This function
    is provided to allow the atomic transition from the locked state
