You wouldn't think it'd take 3 months for a photocopy! Sheeh. Now I can do the man files that I've been promising. 8-). Where should these be installed from? I guess /usr/src/lib/libc_r/man is an obvious place, but this would mean that the thread man files would only be available if libc_r is installed (which is not necessarily the case). Alternately they could go in /usr/src/lib/libc/pthread and get installed with the standard libc. [A point to note here is that the man files I write will strictly match 1003.1c and as such they are not user thread library implementation dependent.] Opinions?
