rh f57caf5b16 Update pth to 1.1.4
Changes are:

   *) Changed internal handling of spawned threads: they are now really
      inserted to the top of the priority queue to make sure a thread is
      guarrantied to be dispatched next when one calls pth_yield(NULL)
      directly after a pth_spawn(). This is especially interesting for
      programming with the co-routine paradigm where it allows one to better
      control the startup of a co-routine.
      [Ralf S. Engelschall, Jens Andersen <Jens@trw.nl>]

   *) Fixed pthread_cancel(): a switch statement was incorrect (three
      breaks were missing to stop falling through).
      [Jens Andersen <Jens@trw.nl>]

   *) Change internal `_pthread' prefix to `__pthread'.
      [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   *) Enhanced backward compatibility stuff for Pthread draft 4 (DCE Threads)
      in pthread.h.in: When _POSIX_BACKCOMPAT is defined before the pthread.h
      header is included one now gets a lot more backward compatibility
      mappings.
      [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   *) Optimize internal processing by inlining various small functions from
      pth_ring.c, pth_pqueue.c and pth_sched.c which are called a lot.
      [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   *) Optimized readline() in test_common.c
      [Ralf S. Engelschall]

   *) Added specific support for Linux/glibc/mc68000 to pth_mctx.c
      [Roman Hodek <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>]

   *) Updated INSTALL document for --enable-optimize.
