According to POSIX 1003.1c-1995, no such mutex-altering function exists.
pthread_mutexattr_get/settype(...) functions are defined by X/Open XSH5
(Unix98). I would suggest writing a wrapper for OSs that don't
implement recursive locks (it's easy enough to make your own
implementation- just chec

Thanks for the info - useful to know.

Avoiding recursive locks is my preference - t
BSD/OS supports:
The pthreads library conforms to IEEE Std1003.1c
(``POSIX'').
How is that different from UNIX98?

Just checked up on this: apparently version "g" of the standard does contain
such manipulation functions...
