Since _newlib_flockfile_start()/end() are defined in stdio/local.h, using
_newlib_flockfile_start()/end() from psignal.c is a bit painful. Moreover
there are several reports that they can not build newlib on bare metal.
Therefore, I imitated FreeBSD in a hurry just because it seems the easiest
way.
