Final iteration to fix libc internal locking if libpthread is pulled
in by dlopen call (directly or indirectly).
We cannot really use the weak symbol trick for shared build, since
the symbols won't get refreshed if libpthread is pulled in dynamically.
In glibc, they have #ifdef SHARED magic to either use pthread_functions
table, or weaks. But as we shared object files with both builds, this
does not sounds good either.
The reintroduces the libc weaks.c, but uses them now only with static
build. For dynamic build, we still use the symbols with same name, but
provide weaks in forward.c so they end up dereferencing the
pthread_functions table indirectly if we are not linked to libpthread.
Mutex initialization is hard coded as inline, as it needs to happen even
if libpthread is not initially loaded.

It is not possible to override for libpthread to override
the weak libc definitions. This has never worked in uclibc, and
does no longer work in glibc either (unless you use LD_DYNAMIC_WEAK).
The proper thing to do is have weak prototypes in libc, and
definitions in libpthread only. This way libc runs even if
those functions are not defined, but just needs to protect
against the NULL values (done by implementing __uclibc_maybe_call).
This fix the problems if libc is linked before libpthread or
if libpthread is pulled by a dependency library.

things, and avoid potential deadlocks caused when a thread holding a uClibc
internal lock get canceled and terminates without releasing the lock. This
change also provides a single place, bits/uClibc_mutex.h, for thread libraries
to modify to change all instances of internal locking.

the weaks that we arent actually using atm, and in general touchup the code

Hi Erik
It seems to me that __pthread_once and __pthread_initialize_minimal could be made
WEAKs with no stub. The code in rpc_thread.c and __uClibc_main.c appears to expect this.
Also, __pthread_return_0 __pthread_return_1 and __pthread_return_void can be static, not to
pollute the name space.

missing one in the glibc abi, and including a number of extras (which I
left in commented).
Unfortunately, this brings back the perl pthread bug. Fixing the incorrect
weaks in libpthread wasn't sufficient to escape the shared loader bug. :-(

were including libc-lock.h which had a bunch of weak pragmas. Also,
uClibc supplied a number of no-op weak thread functions even though
many weren't needed. This combined result was that sometimes the
functional versions of thread functions in pthread would not override
the weaks in libc.
While fixing this, I also prepended double-underscore to all necessary
weak thread funcs in uClibc, and removed all unused weaks.
I did a test build, but haven't tested this since these changes are
a backport from my working tree. I did test the changes there and
no longer need to explicitly add -lpthread in the perl build for
perl to pass its thread self tests.

glibc 2.1.3 and ported to work with uClibc by Stefan Soucek and Erik Andersen
(me). Stefan has hacked things up such that linuxthreads runs on MMU-less
systems (tested only on arm-nommu). Erik cleaned things up and made it work
properly as a shared library.
