Bug#427722: pthread_kill() declaration disappears when compiling with -ansi

["Daniel F. Smith" <dfsmith@almaden.ibm.com>]

Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.5-9+b1

When compiling with the -ansi flag in gcc, pthread_kill() is implicitly
defined.  The old behavior worked with -ansi.  See this example.



cat <<EOF >test.c
#include <pthread.h>
#include <signal.h>

void *start(void *arg) {return NULL;}

void test(void) {
        pthread_t t;
        (void)pthread_create(&t,NULL,start,NULL);
        pthread_kill(t,SIGKILL);
        }
EOF




$ gcc -Wall -c test.c
(no warnings)

$ gcc -ansi -Wall -c test.c
test.c: In function 'test':
test.c:9: warning: implicit declaration of function 'pthread_kill'
