// G1: Add(1)

// G2: Done() // Release semaphore: sema == 1, waiters == 0. G1 doesn't run yet.
// G3: Wait() // Finds counter == 0, waiters == 0, doesn't block.
// G3: Add(1) // Makes counter == 1, waiters == 0.
// G3: go G4()
// G3: Wait() // G1 still hasn't run, G3 finds sema == 1, unblocked! Bug.
