OK, I'll double check.  I did a make clean; make; make tests about 6
hours ago and that worked.  I'll update gcc and binutils from cvs and
redo the build from scratch to check.

Which nptl tests failed?  tst-cleanup3 will fail unless you have fixed
_pthread_cleanup_push in cleanup.c.

I configured with ../libc/configure --prefix=/usr
 --enable-add-ons=nptl --with-tls --with-__thread
 --with-headers=/stuff/paulus/kernel/pmac-2.5.64/include
