Description Randall Hopper 2000-03-18 16:00:02 UTC
	pthread_yield is apparently supported, though there is no
        man page.  

        POSIX doesn't support this AFAIK but rather prefers sched_yield.
        If FreeBSD continues to support pthread_yield, we probably should
        add a man page.

How-To-Repeat: 
	"/usr/bin/man pthread_yield"

pthread_yield() is deprecated (part of a draft POSIX standard), and will at 
some point be completely removed.  For the time being, adding documentation 
for a deprecated interface doesn't seem worth the trouble.
