An objection seemed to be that it is not really needed yet, but as
pointed out by Peter this isn't really the case.  This patch brings us
(FreeBSD) in line with per-thread data semantics on Linux and is used
by qemu system emulation as well.

The other discussion was all around platforms unaffected by this
change (OpenBSD, Windows); I don't see it as an argument either for or
against this change.  So I think it's reasonable to go in.
