If we have pthreads, will we also have pthread_attr_getstacksize and<br>
pthread_attr_setstacksize?<br>

<br>
The pthread_attr_getstacksize() and pthread_attr_setstacksize() functions are<br>
marked as part of the Threads and Thread Stack Size Attribute options.<br>
<br>
The restrict keyword is added to the pthread_attr_getstacksize() prototype<br>
for alignment with the ISO/IEC 9899:1999 standard.<br>
<br>
I can't figure out if that means somebody could implement Threads without<br>
implementing Thread Stack Size. Or even if they can, would anybody actually<br>
do it?<br>
