PATCH: Tweak g++.eh/badalloc1.C (for *-*-freebsd* -pthread only)

[Loren James Rittle]

FAIL: g++.eh/badalloc1.C  Execution test

This test has failed on FreeBSD with -pthread for about 3 years.  I
think it would be better to run the test in a manner that nominally
works in order to catch a real regression.  Even though this test is
in not threaded, the issue is that merely linking with -pthread on
FreeBSD causes __gthread_active_p() to be true (i.e. why the issue
isn't seen on all platforms when their test suite is run -pthread or
the port's equivalent).  That, in turn, causes a behavior change in EH
support on thread-enabled platforms.  In particular, it needs to
allocate per-thread memory at the time of the first exception is throw
within the thread's context (at least on FreeBSD).  This is a known
design issue; robust threaded EH-C++ would prime every worker thread.

Nathan, as the owner of the test: OK for me to install?  You will note
that the change only affects FreeBSD systems when linked against its
thread library.

Regards,
Loren
