Symptoms:
	PHCO_24963:
	( SR:8606202502 CR:JAGad71676 )
	The list of cancellation points is removed from pthread(3t)
	and a link is  provided to thread_safety(5) man page.

	( SR:8606209315 CR:JAGad78501 )
	The environment variable to be set so that the trace records
	are not buffered is THR_TRACE_ASYNC and not THR_TRACE_SYNC.

	PHKL_14999:
	The pthread(3t) man page does not document the fact
	that specifying "-D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L" restricts the
	program being compiled to the POSIX namespace.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_24963:
	( SR:8606202502 CR:JAGad71676 )
	The list of cancellation points is removed from pthread(3t)
	and a link is provided to thread_safety(5) man page.

	Resolution:
	The list of cancellation points removed from pthread(3t) and
	link provided to thread_safety(5) man page.

	( SR:8606209315 CR:JAGad78501 )
	The pthread(3t) man page incorrectly specify that for
	getting unbuffered trace records the environment variable to
	be set is THR_TRACE_SYNC , but it should be THR_TRACE_ASYNC.

	Resolution:
	THR_TRACE_SYNC is changed to THR_TRACE_ASYNC in pthread(3t).

	PHKL_14999:
	Using pthread library interfaces requires
	"-D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199506L" to be specified in the
	compilation command line.  However, this restricts the
	program to interfaces in the POSIX namespaces if the
	classic ANSI compiler is being used.  To use interfaces
	in the larger X/Open namespaces, "-D_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED"
	or "-D_HPUX_SOURCE" must be additionally specified.  This
	restriction is being documented in the man page.
