[PATCH] pthread_fork Part 1

[Thomas Pfaff <tpfaff at gmx dot net>]

Rob suggested to break the pthread_fork patch into smaller chunks. Ths is
part 1 providing a fork save key value handling.
The patch will add a linked list of keys to MTinterface and a fork buffer
in pthread_key where the key values are passed between parent and child.
