Okay. Do I just copy the argument's description twice? Alternatively, 
could add references to 'make-thread'.

Are they important enough for the manual? Since 'make-thread' gets the 
new argument, I'd imagine most users would go through it, or at least 
learn about "thread disposition" due to that.

If you're sure, no problem - it's just the section that I'm looking at 
is called "Basic Thread Functions".
