Changes to individual pages
---------------------------

clock_getres.3
     Michael Kerrisk
         CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID and CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID not setabble
             According to POSIX.1-2001, the CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID and
             CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID clocks should be settable, but
             currently they are not.

pthread_exit.3
     Michael Kerrisk
         BUGS: thread group with a dead leader and stop signals
             Document the bug that can occur when a stop signal
             is sent to a thread group whose leader has terminated.
             http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/611611
             http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=122525468300823&w=2

epoll.7
     Michael Kerrisk
         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.
             http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=504202
         Add error handling for epoll_wait() call in example code
         Improve example code
             Fill in some gaps in example code (variable declarations,
             adding listening socket to epoll set).
             Give variables more meaningful names.
             Other minor changes.
