No change required see pthread_key_create p1069 lines 33581 which says when you create a new key the value NULL is associated with the key. XSH ERN 138 OPEN Looking back at XSH5 the APP USAGE used to say "implementation-provided" and that is probably what we need here. Andrew will take an action to look at XSH5 and consider if other such changes have been made elsewhere and report back. XSH ERN 142 Accept Don had checked with the chair of the C standards committee and he had agreed with the proposed change. ERN 153 REJECT There was a feeling that some implementations may be returning ENOTSUP In the end we were unable to obtain consensus, so we decided to reject the proposal. Next Steps ----------- Andrew will update the aardvark reports on the web site with the latest information . There will be two calls next week to try and clear the remaining open items, on wed 3 Sep and thurs 4 Sep.
