FreeBSD violates POSIX in this respect. The 1003.1 standard
(section 2.5) requires pthread_t to be an arithmetic type. We are
non-compliant in the same way for almost all of the primary
thread-related types:
pthread_attr_t
pthread_mutex_t
pthread_mutexattr_t
pthread_cond_t
pthread_condattr_t
pthread_once_t
We got it right for pthread_key_t, though. :-)
