And here's a patch series.
I found and fixed a second bug, independent of the first, where
threads_minus_1 was being decremented too early and causing dlerror
cleanup (__dl_thread_cleanup) to skip locking.
I also have a solution for returning to skipping locks after the
process becomes single-threaded again.
See attached series.
