      * DOCPUBLIC
      * The pthread_mutexattr_setrobust() and
      * pthread_mutexattr_getrobust() functions  respectively set and
      * get the mutex robust  attribute. This attribute is set in  the
      * robust parameter to these functions.
      *
      * PARAMETERS
      *      attr
      *              pointer to an instance of pthread_mutexattr_t
      *
      *     robust 
      *              must be one of:
      *
      *                      PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED
      *
      *                      PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST
      *
      * DESCRIPTION
      * The pthread_mutexattr_setrobust() and
      * pthread_mutexattr_getrobust() functions  respectively set and
      * get the mutex robust  attribute. This attribute is set in  the
      * robust  parameter to these functions. The default value of the
      * robust  attribute is  PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED.
      * 
      * The robustness of mutex is contained in the robustness attribute
      * of the mutex attributes. Valid mutex robustness values are:
      *
      * PTHREAD_MUTEX_STALLED
      * No special actions are taken if the owner of the mutex is
      * terminated while holding the mutex lock. This can lead to
      * deadlocks if no other thread can unlock the mutex.
      * This is the default value.
      * 
      * PTHREAD_MUTEX_ROBUST
      * If the process containing the owning thread of a robust mutex
      * terminates while holding the mutex lock, the next thread that
      * acquires the mutex shall be notified about the termination by
      * the return value [EOWNERDEAD] from the locking function. If the
      * owning thread of a robust mutex terminates while holding the mutex
      * lock, the next thread that acquires the mutex may be notified
      * about the termination by the return value [EOWNERDEAD]. The
      * notified thread can then attempt to mark the state protected by
      * the mutex as consistent again by a call to
      * pthread_mutex_consistent(). After a subsequent successful call to
      * pthread_mutex_unlock(), the mutex lock shall be released and can
      * be used normally by other threads. If the mutex is unlocked without
      * a call to pthread_mutex_consistent(), it shall be in a permanently
      * unusable state and all attempts to lock the mutex shall fail with
      * the error [ENOTRECOVERABLE]. The only permissible operation on such
      * a mutex is pthread_mutex_destroy().
      *
      * RESULTS
      *              0               successfully set attribute,
      *              EINVAL          'attr' or 'robust' is invalid,
