+ * ------------------------------------------------------
+ * DOCPUBLIC
+ * Determine whether mutexes created with 'attr' can be
+ * shared between processes.
+ *
+ * PARAMETERS
+ * attr
+ * pointer to an instance of pthread_mutexattr_t
+ *
+ * pshared
+ * will be set to one of:
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
+ * May be shared if in shared memory
+ *
+ * PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE
+ * Cannot be shared.
+ *
+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION
+ * Mutexes creatd with 'attr' can be shared between
+ * processes if pthread_mutex_t variable is allocated
+ * in memory shared by these processes.
+ * NOTES:
+ * 1) pshared mutexes MUST be allocated in shared
+ * memory.
+ * 2) The following macro is defined if shared mutexes
+ * are supported:
+ * _POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
+ *
+ * RESULTS
+ * 0 successfully retrieved attribute,
+ * EINVAL 'attr' is invalid,
+ *
+ * ------------------------------------------------------
