As usual, I figured it out two seconds after complaining.
There is and was a race due to the fact that uinfo_init can be called
twice, once by the wait_sig thread and once in dcrt0.cc. It is just
sheer luck that this has never been triggered before.
My preference for fixing this would be to move the call to uinfo_init
prior to the call to sig_init. I've checked in a change which does this.
Corinna, is there any reason why this is a bad idea?

* dcrt0.cc (dll_crt0_1): Move uinfo_init call to before sigproc_init to
avoid a race.
(noload): Add an extra argument for debugging.
* uinfo.cc (uinfo_init): Eliminate test for multiple calls.
(getlogin): Assume that uinfo_init has already been called.
