This seems to do the same thing to me, but I may have misunderstood
the original code.

HEV    hev1, hev2, hev3;     /* Event semaphores */
HMTX   hmtx;                 /* Mutex semaphore  */ 
void  *ptr;              

if (DosCreateEventSem(0, &hev1, 0, FALSE))
  { if (DosCreateEventSem(0, &hev2, 0, FALSE))
    { if (DosCreateEventSem(0, &hev3, 0, FALSE))
      { if (DosCreateMutexSem(0, &hmtx, 0, FALSE))
        { if ((ptr = malloc(SOME_SIZE)) == NULL)
          return TRUE; /* We did okay */
        DosCloseMutexSem(hmtx); }
      DosCloseEventSem(hev3); }
    DosCloseEventSem(hev2); }
  DosCloseEventSem(hev1); }
return FALSE;
