Still needs testing of course, but we really need this on ia64.
libc_r uses setjmp/longjmp, which had to be pessimized in order
to allow context switching. By aggressively pushing libthr I
hope to have libc_r fully obsoleted by 5.2 so that we can revert
the setjmp/longjmp pessimization. It also helps to have a working
libthr for when we start working on KSE...
