+ * manager.c: If pthread_create() is given a NULL attribute
+ and the thread manager runs with a realtime policy, set the
+ scheduling policy of the newly created thread back to SCHED_OTHER.
+ * manager.c: If the PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED attribute is given,
+ initialize the schedpolicy field of new_thread->p_start_args
+ to that of the calling thread.
