I think it would be definitely wothwile to reduce synchronizing calls, as
they are amoung the most time consuming calls you can make. I would have
tried it myself, but I'm not that windows guru and did not want to go into
all the depths of the allegro implementation here. Maybe I should do it, if
there's nobody else...
