Actually I think Alexandre Oliva checked in the combination
advance/regression patch in this case.  It's no big deal though.

THREADSPEC ends up in libgcj.spec.  For FreeBSD we already set it
differently; see the big comment in configure.in.
THREADLIBS is only used when linking libgcj.la; that was Alexandre's
change.  For FreeBSD we need to pass this to every link command.
So a new subst seemed appropriate.
