[PATCH] Fix statically linked apps dlopening AT_SYSINFO using libs

Hi!

When statically linked application dlopens (e.g. for NSS or iconv) libc.so
which uses %gs:0x10 ENTER_KERNEL, it segfaults the first time one of the
syscalls in the libraries is called.
The following patch fixes it.

linuxthreads/
	* sysdeps/i386/tls.h (INIT_SYSINFO): Initialize head->sysinfo even
	if not SHARED.
nptl/
	* sysdeps/i386/tls.h (INIT_SYSINFO): Initialize _head->sysinfo even
	if not SHARED.
