BZ #12310: pthread_exit in static app. segfaults
Static applications that call pthread_exit on the main
thread segfault. This is because after a thread terminates
__libc_start_main decrements __nptl_nthreads which is only
defined in pthread_create. Therefore the right solution is
to add a requirement to pthread_create from pthread_exit.

	[BZ #12310]
	* pthread_exit.c: Add reference to pthread_create.
