This patch adds a new "Inter-Process Communication"
chapter to cover the sem*, msg*, and shm* functions.
Initially we document only the sem* function signatures
and their safety notes.
This adds the base chapter for POSIX threads and also documentation
for thread-specific data, along with a note on its interaction with
C++11 thread_local variables.
[BZ #13743]
A new class of installed headers has been documented for low-level
platform-specific functionality. PowerPC added the first instance with a
function to provide time base register access (__ppc_get_timebase). This
is required for applications that measure time at high frequencies with
high precision that can't afford a syscall.
[BZ #13750]

Don't invoke localtime_r or gmtime_r unless it's the GNU C
