      * DOCPUBLIC
      *      Determine whether condition variables created with 'attr'
      *      can be shared between processes.
      *
      * PARAMETERS
      *      attr
      *              pointer to an instance of pthread_condattr_t
      *
      *      pshared
      *              will be set to one of:
      *
      *                      PTHREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
      *                              May be shared if in shared memory
      *
      *                      PTHREAD_PROCESS_PRIVATE
      *                              Cannot be shared.
      *
      *
      * DESCRIPTION
      *      Condition Variables created with 'attr' can be shared
      *      between processes if pthread_cond_t variable is allocated
      *      in memory shared by these processes.
      *      NOTES:
      *      1)      pshared condition variables MUST be allocated in
      *              shared memory.
      *
      *      2)      The following macro is defined if shared mutexes
      *              are supported:
      *                      _POSIX_THREAD_PROCESS_SHARED
      *
      * RESULTS
      *              0               successfully retrieved attribute,
      *              EINVAL          'attr' or 'pshared' is invalid,
      *
      * ------------------------------------------------------
