Segfault in pthread.c

[Andreas Jaeger <aj at suse dot de>]

Compiling glibc 2.1.x CVS with gcc 2.95.2 gives a segfault in
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x4001d21c in pthread_initialize () at pthread.c:375
375       if (__dso_handle)
(gdb) p __dso_handle
No symbol "__dso_handle" in current context.

This was introduced by the following change:
2000-03-19  Ulrich Drepper  <drepper@redhat.com>

	* pthread.c (pthread_initialize): Instead of on_exit use
	__cxa_atexit if __dso_label is available to allow unloading the
	libpthread shared library.

I'm appending a patch to get this working with gcc 2.95.2 - the patch
is needed for both branches.

Btw. Uli, you changed __on_exit to on_exit - is this ok?

	* pthread.c (pthread_initialize): Proper check for existence of
	__dso_handle.
