Attached patch pr_dcethreads.txt (obsolete) — Splinter Review
NSPR's pthreads code can be simplified if it doesn't need to
support the ancient HP-UX DCE threads (an earlier draft of the
pthreads standard).

I generated by patch by searching for "_PR_DCETHREADS" and then
searching for "DCE" in the NSPR source tree.

To review the patch, assume the macro _PR_DCETHREADS is undefined.

Changes from the previous patch:

1. I resurrected the dceemu.c test program. I found that this
is the only test program of the DCE emulation API, declared in
the prdce.h header. If we remove dceemu.c, then nothing uses
the functions declared in prdce.h.

I changed dceemu.c so that it does not require _PR_DCETHREADS
to be defined.

2. I removed the -ldce linker flag (HP-UX 10.x only) from two
Makefile.in files.
