>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	The threaded library libc_r.

>Description:

	There is no pthread_cancel() available in the POSIX thread library.
	One cannot assign a pointer to pthread_cancel(), because such a name
	is not exported from libc_r.a.

>How-To-Repeat:

	nm libc_r.a | fgrep cancel

>Fix:
	
	Add the missing function to the library with the cancel mode
	selector support (ignored, deferred, immediate).
