Hi,

it is possible to enable POSIX options in the kernel configuration file,
to be specific:
  options     P1003_1B
  options     _KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING
  options     _KPOSIX_VERSION=199309L

The comments say "Build in _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING", but what does
this actually mean? When would I want to have these options active, and
when should I leave them disabled? Would it make any sense to enable
some but not all of these 3 options, or are they only useful together?

The handbook says "Certain applications in the ports collection use
these"; does this mean, there is no effect if none of these ports is
running?

Thanks,
	Bernd
