According to the commit message when kurt@ switched gcc3 to the posix
thread model, it ``makes dwarf2 exception handling thread safe and
enables thread safety for libstdc++''.

That change was reverted because it did not work correctly on hppa. Now
that hppa has switched to gcc4, there is no reason not to bring this
change back in.
