I don't see how you can get the right semantics this way, but maybe I
missed something.  How will you be able to wake a single thread for
auto-reset events, but all of them for manual events?  How are you
going to implement PulseEvent? How can you do WaitForMultipleObjects
for an auto-reset event without a race?
