It's *not* an nptl problem.  The program is simply broken.  errno is and
was a macro.  Programs which use errno without including <errno.h> are
broken.  What is new is that this now produces a warning.  Previously
threads programs simply and quitely failed in mysterious ways.

There is no excuse for not using errno correctly.  ISO C and POSIX
forever say that errno might be a macro.
