<function>sem_acquire</function> blocks (if necessary) until the
semaphore can be acquired. A process attempting to acquire a
semaphore which it has already acquired will block forever
if acquiring the semaphore would cause its max_acquire value to
be exceeded.
</para>
<para>
After processing a request, any semaphores acquired by the
process but not explicitly released will be released automatically
and a warning will be generated.
