libkse in FreeBSD 8.0, do not build or install static versions of libkse
(i.e. libkse*.a) in the default case. Static versions will be built and
installed if libthr is not built or if libkse is the default threading
library.

contention. The intent is to dynamically adjust to load imbalances, which
can cause severe contention.
Use pthread mutexes where possible instead of libc "spinlocks" (they aren't
actually spin locks). Conceptually, this change is meant only to support
the dynamic load balancing code by enabling the use of spin locks, but it
has the added apparent benefit of substantially improving performance due to
reduced context switches when there is moderate arena lock contention.
Proper tuning parameter configuration for this change is a finicky business,
and it is very much machine-dependent. One seemingly promising solution
would be to run a tuning program during operating system installation that
computes appropriate settings for load balancing. (The pthreads adaptive
spin locks should probably be similarly tuned.)
vector of slots for lazily freed objects. For each deallocation, before
doing the hard work of locking the arena and deallocating, try several times
to randomly insert the object into the vector using atomic operations.
This approach is particularly effective at reducing contention for
multi-threaded applications that use the producer-consumer model, wherein
one producer thread allocates objects, then multiple consumer threads
deallocate those objects.

Note that ULong in this code is actually defined as an unsigned integer across
all arches so that the gdtoa() function always processes 32 bit data
despite the unfortunate naming of "ULong".
libraries had not had their versions bumped relative to 6.3-REL but
had indeed been changed. We need to bump their version so they can be
properly added to the compat6x port:

Until the code is cleaned up, just add -fno-strict-aliasing to the
CFLAGS of these for the tinderboxes' sake, allowing the rest of the
tree to have -Werror enabled again.
cause the build to fail because y.tab.c can have a more
recent modification time than y.tab.h, and the bad rule
relied on the opposite.
(The last write to y.tab.c by yacc(1) happens after the
last write to y.tab.h, according to truss(1).)

fixes a NULL-dereference of curthread when libstdc+ initializes
the exception handling globals on archs we can't use GNU TLS due
to lack of support in binutils 2.15 (i.e. arm and sparc64), yet,
thus making threaded C++ programs compiled with GCC 4.2.1 work
again on these archs.
