Update to the most recent release of LinuxThreads, glibc-linuxthreads-2.1.2,
which is rather tightly coupled with GNU libc, unlike the older version
of this port.
LinuxThreads has added many features since it was integrated with GNU libc,
which means that a number of interfaces that were borrowed from libc_r are
no longer needed.
This updated port required a lot of reworking of the port, so there are
likely to be new bugs.
