Usually, we add an empty line after the subject. This scheme is canon
for DVCS (Hg, git) to separate the 'subject' from the 'body' of the
commit log, and display them correctly. That's a minor nit, I've fixed
it here.
Also, for this patch, the change is not obvious, so would have needed a
bit of explanations in the commit log, eg.:
cc/gcc: fix gcc 4.8 build for C library without threads support
libatomic calls the pthread primitives, which are not present if
the C library lacks threads support, and the build breaks.
In this case, just disable the build of libatomic.

I had to look at libatomic to understand why it would not build without
threads. Granted, that was kind of easy, but not obvious.
In a commit log that fixes a problem, you have to explain:
- what breaks
- why it breaks
- how you fixed it
Anyway, I've applied it nonetheless.
Thank you! :-)
Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
