[PATCH] PPC64 vfork fix for insmod

The last vfork.S patch improved glibc "make check" but caused problems
for insmon with unresolved ref. The TOC entry for
__libc_pthread_functions is not needed for -static and should be
protected by #$ifdef SHARED.

        * linuzthreads/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/vfork.S
