POSIX thread support in newlib

I saw this comment about lack of POSIX thread support in newlib in an
inset block discussing Clibc.

" In addition, CLibc supports POSIX threads, a useful feature that
newlib currently lacks. "

Since I'm looking at porting an application that has about 90 threads,
this concerned me. Admittedly the page is fairly old (over three years -
12/28/01) so I'm hoping it's no longer a valid concern.
