I'm porting hosted Inferno (http://www.vitanuova.com/)
to NetBSD, and I need something equivalent to the
Linux/FreeBSD/Darwin sched_yield() system call.  Is there
a reason (other than lack of time/interest) why this call
doesn't exist?  It seems to be standard (the Linux man
page references POSIX.1b).  Is there another way to
achieve the same effect (sleep(0) doesn't seem to do the
trick perfectly), or should I try to implement the call
myself and submit a patch?

I'm not subscribed to this list, so I would appreciate
it if any replies were CC'd to me.

Thanks,

Micah
