Ah, good catch.  It seems that _PTHREADS_INVARIANTS is enabled in
libc_r and libpthread unconditionally.  It's not related to the kernel
INVARIANTS option, but looking at the under src/lib/libc_r I can see
that it enables a few extra checks and panic()s here and there.  Since
I've been running "with" the checks for a while, and never paniced
because of libc_r it's probably safe to remove.
