Discussion:

32.6.5 [thread.condition.condvarany]/4 says, in part, that `condition_variable_any()` throws an exception "if any native handle type manipulated is not available".

I don't know what that means. Is this intended to say something different from the analogous words for `condition_variable()` [32.6.4 [thread.condition.condvar]/4], "if some non-memory resource limitation prevents initialization"? If not, it should be worded the same way.

[2012, Kona]

Copy the corresponding wording from the `condition_variable` constructor in 32.6.4 [thread.condition.condvar] p4.

Move to Review.

Concurrency move to Ready.

Proposed resolution:

This wording is relative to N3337.

1. Change 32.5.4.3 [thread.timedmutex.requirements]/4 as indicated:

   >     condition_variable_any();

   > > […]

   > > -4- Error conditions:
   > > - `resource_unavailable_try_again` — if any native handle type manipulated is not available if some non-memory resource limitation prevents initialization.
   > > - `operation_not_permitted` — if the thread does not have the privilege to perform the operation.
