I'm unhappy about the way this patch was added.  The message
(http://sourceware.org/ml/pthreads-win32/2009/msg00057.html) isn't
clear what patch we're talking about.  The real patch URL is:

http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/deps/third_party/mingw/pthreads-w32.patch.txt?revision=16646&view=markup

Patches should always go upstream first, and patches which aren't
upstream yet should be documented in the spec file.  Please add this
documentation.
