pthreads.7: Rework, and fix small error in, thread-safe function list
...
Integrate the changes that occurred in POSIX.1-2008 into the
main list (to be consistent with the list, elsewhere on this
page, of functions that are cancellation points).
Also, fix an error that said that strerror() was added to
the list in POSIX.1-2008. It was strsignal() that was
added. (strerror() was already in the list in POSIX.1-2001.)

epoll.7: Fix error handling after accept() in example code
...
Simply continuing after an error is in most cases wrong,
and can lead to infinite loops (e.g., for EMFILE).
So handle an error by terminating.

NOTES: Pthreads requires that all threads share the same UIDs and

GIDs. But the Linux kernel maintains separate UIDs and GIDs for
every thread. NPTL does some work to ensure that credential
changes by any thread are carried through to all POSIX threads in
a process.
