@ page 999 line 31981 section pthread_attr_setguardsize() editorial 
{IBM102005-1}

Problem:

Edition of Specification (Year): 2004

Defect code :  1. Error

Mention is made of a "stack" thread attribute, in the same reference as the 
"stackaddr" thread attribute. There appears to be no reference to, or 
explanation of, a "stack" attribute anywhere else in the Specification.

The context of the paragraph leads me to think that "stack" should be 
"stacksize" - since indeed if it is set, one is managing one's own thread stack.


Action:

replace the word "stack" with "stacksize"


ELSE

define the "stack" thread attribute in the appropriate place(s).
