Work around FTBFS on mips by disabling TLS support

[Christophe Jarry]

Dear IceCat developers,

I looked to the configure.in file available on
http://svn.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/trunk/icecat/configure.in?revision=142&root=gnuzilla&view=markup
today. It seems it has not been patched with the patch sent to you on january
(see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnuzilla/2011-01/msg00014.html) and
attached to this mail, so that IceCat could be built on MIPS.

Moreover, I think it would be better to keep this patch as a patch and then to
include the following commands into make.icecat:

    patch -p0 < Work-around....patch || exit 1
    autoconf2.13 configure.in >configure || exit 1

This way, there is no more need to have the file configure.in inside the trunk
of IceCat, and transition to IceCat 4.0 will be smoother.
