Seemingly Synchronize is not implemented decently in Lazarus (while it 
seems to work perfectly as documented with Delphi).

I suppose WaitFor is done with Messages and this seems to be completely 
broken for Linux in the latest svn version while it did work in former 
versions and seems still to be working with the  Windows Widget Type.
