testandset on powerpc

On PPC I get now when building nscd:
/usr/src/packages/BUILD/glibc-2.2/cc/linuxthreads/libpthread.so: undefined reference to `testandset'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

$ nm linuxthreads/libpthread.so |grep testandset
         U testandset

Is this a problem of too old tools/gcc?  Or should the appended patch
(at least partially) be reverted?

	* sysdeps/powerpc/pt-machine.h: Remove testandset, it's not used
	and wastes space; correct types.
