at it, use the ANSI C generic pointer type for the second argument,
thus matching the documentation.
Remove the now extraneous (and now conflicting) function declarations
in various libc sources. Remove now unnecessary casts.

incorrectly when encountering `large' groups (many members and/or many
long member names). The reporter tracked this down to the glibc NSS
module compatibility code (nss_compat.c): it would prematurely record
that a NSS module was finished iterating through its database in some
cases.
Two aspects are corrected:
1. nss_compat.c recorded that a NSS module was finished iterating
whenever the module reported something other than SUCCESS. The
correct logic is to continue iteration when the module reports
either SUCCESS or RETURN. The __nss_compat_getgrent_r and
__nss_compat_getpwent_r routines are updated to reflect this.
2. An internal helper macro __nss_compat_result is used to map glibc
NSS status codes to BSD NSS status codes (e.g. NSS_STATUS_SUCCESS ->
NS_SUCCESS). It provided the obvious mapping.
When a NSS routine is called with a too-small buffer, the
convention in the BSD NSS code is to report RETURN. (This is used
to implement reentrant APIs such as getpwnam_r(3).) However, the
convention in glibc for this case is to set errno = ERANGE and
overload TRYAGAIN. __nss_compat_result is updated to handle this
case.

on a rwlock while there are writers waiting. We normally favor
writers but when a reader already has at least one other read lock,
we favor the reader. We don't track all the rwlocks owned by a
thread, nor all the threads that own a rwlock -- we just keep
a count of all the read locks owned by a thread.

waiting on a locked mutex. This involves passing a struct timespec
from the pthread mutex locking interfaces all the way down to the
function that suspends the thread until the mutex is released.
The timeout is assumed to be an absolute time (i.e. not relative to
the current time).
Also, in _thread_suspend() make the passed in timespec const.
o Remove some code duplication between _thread_init(), which is run once
to initialize libthr and the intitial thread, and pthread_create(), which
initializes newly created threads, into a new function called from both
places: init_td_common()
o Move initialization of certain parts of libthr into a separate
function. These include:
- Active threads list and it's lock
- Dead threads list and it's lock & condition variable
- Naming and insertion of the initial thread into the
active threads list.
ó++ ABI document at http://www.codesourcery.com/cxx-abi/abi.html#dso-dtor
The ABI was initially defined for ia64, but GCC3 and Intel compilers
have adopted it on other platforms.
This is the patch from PR bin/59552 with a number of changes by
me.

work before anyways, and I didn't want to fix broken code I had no
way of testing. It was necessary however, in order to get rid of GIANT_LOCK.
Pthread priorities will have to wait a little longer to get fixed.
problems: (1) The wrong flag was being checked for in the attribute
(2) The pthread's state was not being set to indicate it was
suspended.
