Hello, sorry for my absence from AD these 4.1.15 WIP release days... 
Just came back to a vacation to Berlin, and I loved the city. Last time 
I had been there was 8 years ago and it has changed a LOT; now the 
difference between eastern and western half is thin.

Yes, sched_yield() is available under OSX. And no, the OSX port does 
not use configure; the configuration is static, as OSX is a fixed unix 
variant, no need to check for things as what's on a machine running OSX 
will be on another running the same os.
