Section 10.4

bump 😄

Question incorrectly states that cond_wait is "inside a for loop", but the code examples earlier in the section have it inside a while loop. (Which makes sense, because a for loop would stop checking after n failed attempts).

The code example, queue_cond.c, also uses a while loop (lines 64 & 76).
