On Windows, syslogger runs in two threads. The main thread processes config
reload and rotation signals, and a helper thread reads messages from the
pipe and writes them to the log file. However, server code isn't generally
thread-safe, so if both try to do e.g palloc()/pfree() at the same time,
bad things will happen. To fix that, use a critical section (which is like
a mutex) to enforce that only one the threads are active at a time.
