Thank you.  Btw., if you want to be really sure that pthread_getattr_np
recovers from an uninitialized or invalid pthread_attr_t argument, just
initialize it like this:

  pthread_attr_t attr =3D { 42 };

This gives a compile time warning, but it makes sure that the internal
validity check SEGVs and the exception handling kicks in.

I'll release a new test version today.


Thanks,
Corinna
