    Fix libthread_xu's use of MAP_STACK.  Guards were not being setup properly.
    
    MAP_STACK mappings do not immediately extend down to their base, so calling
    mprotect() on the base is basically a NOP.  Instead of calling mprotect() we
    call mmap() with MAP_FIXED to force the guard.
    
    Properly use MAP_FIXED when setting up the primary guard on the original
    user stack.  The address specified in the mmap() is only a hint when MAP_FIXED
    is not used, and will not properly map the anonymous area.  Also, new kernels
    do not allow non-MAP_STACK mappings to override MAP_STACK mappings and the
    user stack area is a MAP_STACK mapping, so use of MAP_FIXED is mandatory here.
