@@@STARTPACK(pthreads;Posix Threads)

Pthreads is a prototype implementation of POSIX 1003.4a, Draft 6.  It
is a C-language library that supports multiple threads of control
within a single process.
<P>
This library was developed to support the PART Ada runtime System
(RTS).  As such, it does not implement the entire Pthreads interface.
It runs on a SPARCstation under the SunOS operating system, and its
use on that platform will also be non-compliant since the bulk of the
POSIX 1003.1 base standard and POSIX 1003.4 Real-Time Extensions to
which Pthreads is an extension will not be available.  The Pthreads
library does provide some of the capability of these other standards.
