Standard 2.2.2 install

>Description:

"man pthread" and "man pthread_detach" report the function prototype as:
   int pthread_detach(pthread_t thread)
but the function is really:
/usr/include/pthread.h:int              pthread_detach __P((pthread_t *));

>How-To-Repeat:

nothing special

>Fix:
	
Add a "*" to the man pages.
