I had forgotten it. Are you opposed to me starting a new
set of nptl tests called `tst-pthreadX-static.c' which tracks
all of the sensible static things you might want to do with
libpthread.a?

Although there are lots of permutations of these functions
there are probably only a few useful orderings we need to
check to make libpthread.a work correctly (without having
to resort to something like Fedora's linking of the entire
library into one .o file).

Unless you think that Fedora's large static .o file is
perhaps a more maintainable solution? I'd rather we try
to keep the bloat down if at all possible.

Comments?

Cheers,
Carlos.
