As regards 4_1-branch, the bug is latent, because, as noticed by
Andreas, in that branch we have the more serious issue that the
atomic_word.h tailored at powerpc, alpha and ia64 are mistakenly not
used, instead just the generic one. Thus, I mean to commit there also
the below additional hunk.
I read Mark's announcement about the 4.1.2 freeze and went ahead.
In my opinion, the 4.1.2 bits are sufficiently safe and, at the same
time, fix a serious problem in the ia64, powerpc, alpha implementation
of the thread-safe static locals. The fix is already well tested in
mainline and 4_2-branch. I fully take the responsability for the commit,
and if necessary will be promptly available for reversions or any other
last minute action.
