This is not currently done (a bug), nor does libpthread use the
threadreg yet. I'm doing this so it the code can be used by the

implementation:
-don't return a difference, this can overflow

- Make the threadreg code use _lwp_setprivate() instead of MD hooks.
...
XXX This must not be enabled by default because the LWP private mechanism
is reserved for TLS. It is provided only as a test/demo.
XXX Since ucontext_t does not contain the thread private variable, for a
short time after threads are created their thread specific data is unset.
If a signal arrives during that time we are screwed.
- No longer need pthread__osrev.
