[mark@codesourcery.com: libc/4926: __cxa_finalize mishandles a NULL dso parameter]

[Roland McGrath <roland at redhat dot com>]

If that reference is indeed the spec, then this change needs to be made.
But before I put it in I am wondering whether there might be any gotchas,
i.e. existing binaries that depend on the erroneous behavior.  If so, 
we should do some versioning.

When __cxa_finalize is called with a NULL DSO handle, it

cleanups.
