I'm attempting to build the X11 libs with the thread safety stuff (I beleive
Linux can already be built like this) and have discovered when linking that we
don't have the getpwnam_r & getpwuid_r functions in out libc_r. Is anyone
planning on adding these?

It's all part of my plan to make SDL (Sam Lantinga's Simple Direct Media
Layer) work. It dies quite frequently when starting sound & graphics in some
of the test apps. I am suspicious that it requires a threadsafe libX11.
