jruoho e55b912b81 Add the Butenhof's book to SEE ALSO. (It was decent enough when I read it
years ago, but if there are better ones, please feel free to add those.)

jruoho 8292b0e60f Enumerate the functions in a table instead of a big SEE ALSO.

wiz 8b5179c21c Add CAVEATS section:
Due to limitations in the current pthread implementation, makecontext(3)
and sigaltstack(2) should not be used in programs which link against
libpthread (whether threads are used or not).

Wording from drochner@ and ad@

Bump date for man pages.

Add note in libpthread/README so it's not forgotten to update the man
pages when the problem is fixed.

ad a4c99db9fe Sync with reality, and note that programs must link against the dynamic

daniel 760b46e0e9 Document PTHREAD_CONCURRENCY, ack by wiz@. 2005-02-01 11:38:27 +00:00
cl 2c9b7b1eb7 Set default stack size to the current limit on the stack size as set
with the shell's command to change limits.  Make the PTHREAD_STACKSIZE
environment variable override the default stack size.  The old fixed
stack size behaviour can be enable with PT_FIXEDSTACKSIZE_LG when building
libpthread.
