Convert POSIX Thread to use semaphore instead

One less value to store, and it should be less of a hack too.

Semaphores will not wait around if they have the go-ahead; they depend
on an internal value being non-zero, instead of whatever was loaded when
they started waiting, which is the case with a `Cond`.
