  Read f->func.cxa under the lock.

There is a clear data race:
thread 0: __run_exit_handlers unlock __exit_funcs_lock
thread 1: __internal_atexit locks __exit_funcs_lock
thread 0: f->flavor = ef_free;
thread 1: sees ef_free and use it as new
thread 1: new->func.cxa.fn = (void (*) (void *, int)) func;
thread 1: new->func.cxa.arg = arg;
thread 1: new->flavor = ef_cxa;
thread 0: cxafct = f->func.cxa.fn;  // it's wrong fn!
thread 0: cxafct (f->func.cxa.arg, status);  // it's wrong arg!
thread 0: goto restart;
thread 0: call the same exit_function again as it's ef_cxa

Without patch abd with NDEBUG the test fails about 30% of time.
But it fails very rarely with asserts enabled.

Is there a bug report for this in Bugzilla?  (Any bug being fixed that was 
user-visible in a release should have a bug report filed.  Then once the 
fix is in, the bug report should be marked RESOLVED/FIXED with the target 
milestone set to the first release that will have the fix; that's how we 
generate the list of fixed bugs for the NEWS file.)

This is really a continuation of BZ#14333, a fix for which was incomplete.

Do we want a new bug for this?
