--- Comment #4 from Dimitri Staessens <dimitri.staessens at ugent dot be> ---
Hi Torvald,
Thanks for your response. I understand what you're saying, and I agree in
principle.
So, when people call pthread_cond_timedwait() with the monotic clock, they will
always need to add a pthread_testcancel() to be 100% sure that the cancellation
will be handled.
thanks again,
Dimitri
