    To be more precise, the shared signal and exit handling needs to

    most or all of the LD-ELF support is in, and libthread_xu is a proper
    extension to libc rather then the replacement hack represented by libc_r.
    But it is VERY close.  This release is going to be a laundry list of
    'very close' things that we can't quite turn on, which means that the
    next release is going to huge.

Not very long term plan is to remove libc_r, it will quickly become
road stone when DFly moves toward to full threaded environment.
