I originally also put queueasync on that RTL list, but I now see where I
got confused.

QueueAsync is a Lazarus call. The Delphi 2006+ call for it is .queue, but
that is still unimplemented in FPC.  .queue is more or less a synchronize
that doesn't wait.

It could be that it was, originally. But it is like this since at least 2.0.4
 
It is also possible to hook checksynchronize iirc, maybe Lazarus does that,
and you have that in mind.
