Fixes from Jeremy Allison and Terry Lambert for pthreads:

specifically:
uthread_accept.c: Fix for inherited socket not getting correct entry in
                  pthread flags.
uthread_create.c: Fix to allow pthread_t pointer return to be null if
                  caller doesn't care about return.
uthread_fd.c: Fix for return codes to be placed into correct errno.
uthread_init.c: Changes to make gcc-2.8 thread aware for exception stack
                frames (WARNING: This is #ifdef'ed out by default and is
		different from the Cygnus egcs fix).
uthread_ioctl.c: Fix for blocking/non-blocking ioctl.
uthread_kern.c: Signal handling fixes (only one case left to fix,
                that of an externally sent SIGSEGV and friends -
		a fairly unusual case).
uthread_write.c: Fix for lock of fd - ask for write lock, not read/write.
uthread_writev.c: Fix for lock of fd - ask for write lock, not read/write.

Pthreads now works well enough to run the LDAP and ACAPD(with the gcc 2.8 fix)
sample implementations.
