I'd like to commit the futex API. Ideally, Roland and Dave would do a
final test on NaCL and sparc, but Roland already said it should be fine
and Dave ack'd a previous version of the patch that has changed just
slightly.
While the futex API isn't a bug fix, I believe having it will make
backports of concurrency-related patches easier.
