The problem here is not conversion, but what to wait for,

In zita-convolver.h there is an implementation of sem_t for OSX
(which only has a crippled implementation), using a condition
variable. It doesn't have sem_timedwait(), (since zita-convolver
doesn't need it) but that could be added quite easily.

Ciao,
