used LIBTHREAD_1_0 as its version definition, but now needs
to define its symbols in the same namespace used by libc.
The compatibility hooks allows you to use libraries and
binaries built and linked to libpthread before libc was
built with symbol versioning. The shims can be removed if
libpthread is given a version bump.

signals instead of having more intricate knowledge of thread state
within signal handling.
Simplify signal code because of above (by David Xu).
Use macros for libpthread usage of pthread_cleanup_push() and
pthread_cleanup_pop(). This removes some instances of malloc()
and free() from the semaphore and pthread_once() implementations.
When single threaded and forking(), make sure that the current
thread's signal mask is inherited by the forked thread.
Use private mutexes for libc and libpthread. Signals are
deferred while threads hold private mutexes. This fix also
breaks www/linuxpluginwrapper; a patch that fixes it is at
http://people.freebsd.org/~deischen/kse/linuxpluginwrapper.diff
Fix race condition in condition variables where handling a
signal (pthread_kill() or kill()) may not see a wakeup
(pthread_cond_signal() or pthread_cond_broadcast()).

environment. This includes support for multiple KSEs and KSEGs.
The ability to create more than 1 KSE via pthread_setconcurrency()
is in the works as well as support for PTHREAD_SCOPE_SYSTEM threads.
Those should come shortly.
There are still some known issues which davidxu and I are working
on, but it'll make it easier for us by committing what we have.
This library now passes all of the ACE tests that libc_r passes
with the exception of one. It also seems to work OK with KDE
including konqueror, kwrite, etc. I haven't been able to get
mozilla to run due to lack of java plugin, so I'd be interested
to see how it works with that.

The new libpthread will provide POSIX threading support using KSE.
These files were previously repo-copied from src/lib/libc_r.

_foo - wrapped system call
__foo - enter cancellation point, call _foo(), leave
cancellation point
foo - weak definition to __foo
Change use of global _thread_run to call a function to get the
currently running thread.
Make all pthread_foo functions weak definitions to _pthread_foo,
where _pthread_foo is the implementation. This allows an application
to provide its own pthread functions.
Provide slightly different versions of pthread_mutex_lock and
pthread_mutex_init so that we can tell the difference between
a libc mutex and an application mutex. Threads holding mutexes
internal to libc should never be allowed to exit, call signal
handlers, or cancel.
