I meant comment 0 there.

Of course, that's what Paolo has been saying.

You read it wrong.



The sched_yield check is done for both --enable-libstdcxx-time=yes and

--enable-libstdcxx-time=rt



So is _GLIBCXX_USE_SCHED_YIELD defined on darwin?

The problem isn't finding nanosleep, it's finding what version of POSIX or

X/Open or SUS is supported, so we know what the correct feature test macros is

for nanosleep.



Is _XOPEN_REALTIME defined?  If so, to what value?

What about _XOPEN_VERSION and _POSIX_C_VERSION?



Maybe we can find some other combination of feature test macros that indicate

the POSIX Realtime extensions (POSIX.1b) are supported.
