	_foo - wrapped system call
	foo - weak definition to _foo

and for cancellation points:

	_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.

to fork. It is difficult to do real vfork in libc_r, since almost every
operation with file descriptsor changes _thread_fd_table and friends.

popen(3) works much better with this change.
