[deekoo@tentacle.net] libc/1829: PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP missing from pthread.h

[Andreas Jaeger <aj at suse dot de>]

Hi glibc folks,

PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP is mentioned in the manual:

linuxthreads/linuxthreads.texi:recursive mutexes), and @code{PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP}

but it's not available in glibc 2.1.3 and the development version of
2.2.  Can somebody please update the documentation?

Thanks,
Andreas

The man page for the pthread_mutex_* functions documents a static
initializer (PTHREAD_ERRORCHECK_MUTEX_INITIALIZER_NP) for
error-checking mutexes.  Said static initializer isn't present in
pthread.h.
