On Windows, syslogger runs in two threads. The main thread processes config reload and rotation signals, and a helper thread reads messages from the pipe and writes them to the log file. However, server code isn't generally thread-safe, so if both try to do e.g palloc()/pfree() at the same time, bad things will happen. To fix that, use a critical section (which is like a mutex) to enforce that only one the threads are active at a time.
