Hmm, PGSemaphoreUnlock() actually ignore this error, only log that it 
happens. As I mentioned previously after it happens others connections 
were hung on update operations. What is strange we cannot reproduce this 
problem on Linux. But we can do this on Windows. What another 
information should we provide?
