-Bug fix - Cancelation of threads waiting on condition variables
-now works properly (Lorin Hochstein and Peter Slacik)
+Bugs fixed:
+- ctime_r had incorrect argument (Erik Hensema),
+- threads were being created with incorrect type
+ PTHREAD_CANCEL_ASYNCHRONOUS (Ross Johnson).
+
+Some compatibility improvements added, eg.
+- pthread_setcancelstate accepts NULL pointer
+ for the previous value argument. Ditto for
+ pthread_setcanceltype. This is compatible
+ with Solaris but should not affect
+ standard applications (Erik Hensema)
