Because usually POSIX functions are either fully implemented or not
implemented at all.  I took a look at the POSIX spec and this is not
the case with pthread_[gs]setconcurrency; they do match what you
say.

You missed my response that said I am implementing them "for real"
(not fake) and that I had a slew of other changes.  I am a day or
so away from commiting my changes (this is for libpthread, not
libc_r or libthr).
