glibc 2.2.5 has several function declarations that use __thread as a
parameter name, but in GCC 3.3 __thread is a keyword.  You can modify
the glibc header files to replace __thread with something else; since
they are only used as parameter names in prototypes it doesn't matter
what you change them to.
