4-stable termios diff behaviour lc/lc_r

[Tijl Coosemans]

Hi list,

I think I've found a possible bug in 4-stable, though I'm not that
kind of an expert so I'll leave that decision up to you.

Attached is a little test program that opens /dev/cuaa0 and tries to
read 4 bytes.

When compiled using "gcc vtime.c -o vtime" there's no problem. For
example, when you run vtime without anything attached to cuaa0, it'll
wait about 2 seconds and timeout, since VMIN=0 and VTIME=20.

When compiled using "gcc -pthread vtime.c -o vtime" however, the read
function returns immediately, which as far as I can understand, is not
what it's supposed to do.

Does anyone know if this intended or not, or how I can get the right
behaviour in a threaded program?
