Hi,

POSIX does not require strerror() to be thread-safe (although some
implementations are), using it is thus a potential error in
libgfortran. The attached patch fixes this in the case that
strerror_r() is available; thanks to Jakub for the hint about
__builtin_classify_type.

Compared to the previous version of the patch at

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2011-01/msg01400.html

this version does not use TLS, instead the API of gf_strerror() is now
similar to GNU strerror_r() and callers have been updated to supply a
buffer (that might, or might not, be used).

Regtested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, Ok for trunk?

The #ifdef inside of the parameters ending inside function
looks very ugly, you can use unused attribute unconditionally
and start #ifdef only within function body.
