* Explain that cpu_set_t is a bitset, but should be considered

* A CPU set can be duplicated with memset().
* Size of a CPU set is rounded up to size of long.
* CPU_SETSIZE is in bits, but the setsize argument is in bytes.

pthread_attr_setstacksize.3: EINVAL occurs on some systems if stacksize != page-size

On MacOS X at least, pthread_attr_setstacksize(3) can fail
with EINVAL if 'stacksize' is not a multiple of the system
page size. Best to mention this so as to aid people writing
portable programs.

Subject: pthread_create(3) - example bug + problems
[...]
A look in the pthread_set_stacksize man page on Mac revealed that on
Mac the stack size must not only be at least PTHREAD_STACK_MIN...
[...]
...but the new stack size must also be a multiple of the system page
size!
From pthread_attr_setstacksize(3):
pthread_attr_setstacksize() will fail if:
[EINVAL] Invalid value for attr.
[EINVAL] stacksize is less than PTHREAD_STACK_MIN.
!!! [EINVAL] stacksize is not a multiple of the system page size.
See for yourself (PTHREAD_STACK_MIN==8192 on Mac OS X):
$ ./pthread_test -s $((8192*10-1)) a
pthread_attr_setstacksize: Invalid argument
$ ./pthread_test -s $((8192*10)) a
Thread 1: top of stack near 0xb0014f6c; argv_string=a
Joined with thread 1; returned value was A
$ ./pthread_test -s $((8192*10+1)) a
pthread_attr_setstacksize: Invalid argument

The bug is in this part of the code:
/* Allocate memory for pthread_create() arguments */
tinfo = calloc(num_threads, num_threads);
if (tinfo == NULL)
errExit("calloc");
The calloc() line should read like this instead:
tinfo = calloc(num_threads, sizeof(struct thread_info));

gethostbyname.3: Rationalize text on POSIX.1-2001 obsolete interfaces

ctime.3: ctime_r() and localtime_r() need not set 'timezone' and 'daylight'
...
The man page already noted that these functions need not set
'tzname', but things could be clearer: it tzset() is not called,
then the other two variables also are not set.
Also, clarify that ctime() does set 'timezone' and 'daylight'.
