+ Bugfixes to the variant of the code for machines with no compare
+ and swap.
+
+ * spinlock.c (__pthread_alt_lock, __pthread_alt_timedlock): Wait
+ node was not being properly enqueued, due to failing to update
+ the lock->__status field.
+
+ * spinlock.c (__pthread_alt_timedlock): The oldstatus variable was
+ being set inappropriately, causing the suspend function to be called
+ with a null self pointer and crash.

* spinlock.h (__pthread_alt_trylock): Fix code used if no
