Yeah, on my machine man sem_init specifies "Link with -lrt or -pthread".
But I see -lrt getting added into the backend link anyway, presumably
as a result of one of these configure calls:

AC_SEARCH_LIBS(shm_open, rt)
AC_SEARCH_LIBS(shm_unlink, rt)
AC_SEARCH_LIBS(sched_yield, rt)

If we were to try to support USE_UNNAMED_POSIX_SEMAPHORES as default
(which is where I'm thinking about going) we'd have to tweak configure
to check sem_init similarly.
