* DOCPUBLIC
* This function creates a thread running the start function,
* passing it the parameter value, 'arg'. The 'attr'
* argument specifies optional creation attributes.
* The identity of the new thread is returned
* via 'tid', which should not be NULL.
*
* PARAMETERS
* tid
* pointer to an instance of pthread_t
*
* attr
* optional pointer to an instance of pthread_attr_t
*
* start
* pointer to the starting routine for the new thread
*
* arg
* optional parameter passed to 'start'
*
*
* DESCRIPTION
* This function creates a thread running the start function,
* passing it the parameter value, 'arg'. The 'attr'
* argument specifies optional creation attributes.
* The identity of the new thread is returned
* via 'tid', which should not be the NULL pointer.
*
* RESULTS
* 0 successfully created thread,
* EINVAL attr invalid,
* EAGAIN insufficient resources.
