@param _rHandler The link to be called asyncronously
@param _pEventSafety A pointer to a mutex to be used for event safety. See below.
@param _pDestructionSafety A pointer to a mutex to be used for destruction safety. See below.
For a really safe behaviour two mutexes are required. In case your class needs more than one
OAsyncronousLink instance, you may want to share these mutexes (and hold them as members of
your class). Thus, if _pEventSafety and _pDestructionSafety are both non-NULL, they will be
used for the thread-safety of the link. Otherwise the instance will create it's own mutexes.
<BR>
If you use this "mutex feature" be aware of the lifetime of all involved objects : the mutexes
you specify upon construction should live (at least) as long as the OAsyncronousLink object does.
