 * Function:  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:
