Ok, this is old but please let me contribute my solution :)

function sync( callback ){
    syncCount--;
    if ( syncCount < 1 ) callback();

function allFinished(){ .............. }

window.syncCount = 2;

$.ajax({
    url: 'url',
    success: function(data) {
        sync( allFinished );
    }
});
someFunctionWithCallback( function(){ sync( allFinished ); } )

It works also with functions that have a callback. You set the syncCount and you call the function sync(...) in the callback of every action.
