Submit the patches and let's move from there.  Which distribution
and version?

That sounds like correct behaviour if you ignore the error below.

No.  The error codes in the Classic API are defined in
cpukit/rtems/include/rtems/rtems/status.h. 
  /**
   *  This is the status to indicate that a thread is in wrong state
   *  was in the wrong execution state for the requested operation.
   */
  RTEMS_INCORRECT_STATE          = 14,

Native libc which limited the functionality that could work.  It was
developed before the POSIX API was implemented and CPU simulators
were hard to come by.
