+Solaris supports the POSIX variants if you define
+_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS: from one of the man pages:
+
+POSIX
+     cc [ flag...] file... -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS [ library... ]
+ 
+     int getpwnam_r(const char *name, struct  passwd  *pwd,  char
+     *buffer, size_t bufsize, struct passwd **result);
+
+This implies we can continue to use exiting code by adding
+_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS to <config.h> or elsewhere.
