avoid using pthread cleanup push/pop in stdio when not needed

unfortunately in dynamic-linked programs, these macros cause
pthread_self to be initialized, which costs a couple syscalls, and
(much worse) would necessarily fail, crash, and burn on ancient (2.4
and earlier) kernels where setting up a thread pointer does not work.

i'd like to do this in a more generic way that avoids all use of
cleanup push/pop before pthread_self has been successfully called and
avoids ugly if/else constructs like the one in this commit, but for
now, this will suffice.
