+.Sh NAME
+.Nm libthr
+.Nd "alternative POSIX threads library"
+.Sh LIBRARY
+.Lb libthr
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.In pthread.h
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+library provides an alternative 1:1 implementation of the
+.Xr pthread 3
+library interfaces for application threading.
+While applications may be linked directly against
+.Nm ,
+system administrators are offered maximum flexibility by linking against
+.Xr pthread 3 ,
+as they can then use
+.Xr libmap.conf 5
+to select the threading implementation on a per-application basis.
+.Pp
+.Nm
+has been optimized for use by applications expecting system scope thread
+semantics, and can provide significant performance improvements.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr pthread 3 ,
+.Sh AUTHORS
+.An -nosplit
+.Nm
+was originally created by
+.An "Jeff Roberson" Aq jeff@FreeBSD.org ,
+and enhanced by
+.An "Jonathan Mini" Aq mini@FreeBSD.org
+and
+.An "Mike Makonnen" Aq mtm@FreeBSD.org .
+It has been substantially rewritten and optimized by
+.An "David Xu" Aq davidxu@FreeBSD.org .
+.An -split
+.Sh BUGS
+As
+.Nm
+is an optimized system scope thread library, it does not offer support for
+scheduling threads as process scope threads.
