2005-11-15revert linuxthreads to pre rev 11377 (i.e. before the massive attempt to ↵Mike Frysinger
import glibc updates) while keeping the few bugfixes ... idea is to keep both old and new linuxthreads around so we can hack on the new version while delivering the old stable version to end users

Bernd Schmidt found/fixed this problem in uClibc: http://blackfin.uclinux.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=882&group_id=17&atid=141 Basically, the uClinux dist includes a few thread demos - thdm and bcdm - running them simultaneously sometimes causes bus errors.

Please retest, >everyone... This patch was made against our cvs, which has an older version of uClibc in it - this code was recently moved from internals.h to descr.h in the uclibc svn, but it still has the same problem
2005-09-09sync with glibc by moving the thread_desc stuff out of internals.h and into ↵Mike Frysinger
a new file descr.h ... also redo thread_desc init by specifying members in the struct by name rather than position
