Here are updated patches to use Intel BID library when DFP/BID is
enabled.  Intel BID library is available from

http://groups.google.com/group/ia32-abi

as

http://ia32-abi.googlegroups.com/web/libbid-20070614-1.tar.bz2?gda=jqlWm0oAAABayoZq9NXPKZm1OAVN1mTGCvMcjKeqJWo_mt4fEtH5fWG1qiJ7UbTIup-M2XPURDT46id7tgvzqkE5UQ-NNYRsNIBjWWKka8cnEjFziSOZLQ

The new patches make BID library thread-safe to use TLS on the internal
BID flags. I used --dynamic-list linker option to make sure that the
internal BID flags are dynamic in executables to ensure one copy of
them is used.  These BID patches shouldn't change executables which
don't use DFP.

I didn't make a new BID library tarball. Instead, I included 2 BID
library patches here.

Tested on Linux/ia32 and Linux/Intel64.
