+ * Name: pthread_kill
+ *
+ * Description:
+ * The pthread_kill() system call can be used to send any signal to a
+ * thread. See kill() for further information as this is just a simple
+ * wrapper around the kill() function.
+ *
+ * Parameters:
+ * thread - The id of the thread to receive the signal. Only positive,
+ * non-zero values of 'thread' are supported.
+ * signo - The signal number to send. If 'signo' is zero, no signal is
+ * sent, but all error checking is performed.
+ *
+ * Return Value:
+ * On success the signal was send and zero is returned. On error one
+ * of the following error numbers is returned.
+ *
+ * EINVAL An invalid signal was specified.
+ * EPERM The thread does not have permission to send the
+ * signal to the target thread.
+ * ESRCH No thread could be found corresponding to that
+ * specified by the given thread ID
+ * ENOSYS Do not support sending signals to process groups.
+ *
+ * Assumptions:
