_POSIX_C_SOURCE-related problems

[Ross Johnson]

This came up recently and a temporary fix was placed in CVS (sched.h). 
Really though, the PTW32_LEVEL stuff needs to be reviewed and appears to 
be incorrect, i.e. the line in both sched.h and pthread.h

#if defined(_POSIX_C_SOURCE) && _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 199309

is setting PTW32_LEVEL equal to 1, which is wrong for you (should be 3).

Regards.
