Bug description

hi,

the html-manual of ocaml-3.02  says:

23.5 Module ThreadUnix: thread-compatible system calls

This module is deprecated: its functionality has been merged back
into the Unix module. Threaded programs can now call the functions
from module Unix directly, and still get the correct behavior
(block the calling thread, if required, but do not block all
threads in the process)

    but the manual for ocaml-3.04 says:

Module ThreadUnix

module ThreadUnix = struct ... end Thread-compatible system calls.
This module reimplements some of the functions from Unix so that they
only block the calling thread, not all threads in the program, if they
cannot complete immediately. See the documentation of the Unix module for
more precise descriptions of the functions below.

 so the module seems to be reactivated, is this correct ?

No, ThreadUnix is still deprecated, but there was a glitch during the
generation of the documentation. Perhaps the documentation comments
in threadUnix.mli are wrong. We will investigate this.

Thanks for the bug report.
