What manpage?  Got a link?  These are completely undocumented on my
Ubuntu 5.10 system.  As a matter of fact, there is no documentation
whatsoever for NPTL - all the pthread man pages say "LinuxThreads" at
the bottom.

I'm really getting sick of the half-assed pthread support on Debian
based systems.  Anyone got a recommendation for a better distro?
