Some background. In release 2.28, upstream man-pages added
sem_* pages. As noted in the ChagelogL
These pages supercede and provide a superset of the information
in the glibc (3thr) "semaphores(3)" manual page.
(Obviously, "supercede" is my point of view. My pages
do contain more, and more up to date, info. I wish glibc
could decide on just info or just man pages...)
Cheers,
Michael
