 * once_exam.c
 *
 * An example of using the pthreads_once() call to execute an
 * initialization procedure.
 *
 * A program spawns multiple threads and each one tries to
 * execute the routine welcome() using the once call. Only
 * the first thread into the once routine will actually
 * execute welcome().
 *
 * The program's main thread synchronizes its exit with the
 * exit of the threads using the pthread_join() operation.
