@ page 988 line 31500 section pthread_attr_getinheritsched comment 
{pthread_attr_getinheritsched, issue 2/2}

Problem:

Edition of Specification (Year): 2003

Defect code :  2. Omission

References are given against TC1.

That's probably a penny, but it is not said explicetely that both 
PTHREAD_INHERIT_SCHED and PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED shall be supported.

Furthermore, since we don't see any other reasonable values for 
inheritsched, I suggest to restrict the implementation to these 2 
values.

Action:

At line 31500, add:

"The supported values of inheritsched shall be:"

[[Note for the reviewers:

A possible formulation, if we want to allow implementations defined 
inheritsched values is:

"The supported values of inheritsched shall include:" ]]
