* 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:
