So back to my original question. I'm thinking this looks like
void xf86Yield()
{
sched_yield();
}
for now. Which OSes do not have sched_yield()? I'm just
trying to avoid breaking the build. It can be a noop on
the platforms that don't have sched_yield() (they'll be no
worse off then they were before).
Mark.
