Subject: Re: Typo in include/pthreads.h

Thanks for the clarification. Now I notice it looks like the
discrepancy comes from the generation of alltypes.h, which is expected
to become

#if defined(__NEED_pthread_mutex_t) && !defined(__DEFINED_pthread_mutex_t)
typedef struct { union { int __i[10]; volatile int __vi[10]; volatile
void *volatile __p[5]; } __u; } pthread_mutex_t;
#define __DEFINED_pthread_mutex_t
#endif

#if defined(__NEED_mtx_t) && !defined(__DEFINED_mtx_t)
typedef struct { union { int __i[10]; volatile int __vi[10]; volatile
void *volatile __p[5]; } __u; } mtx_t;
#define __DEFINED_mtx_t
#endif

rather than merge those two into the same. In Emscripten we have
preconfigured alltypes.h statically for distribution, and it looks
like that header has not been updated since we have last moved to a
newer Emscripten version. Thanks!
