  Now that abort no longer calls fflush there is no reason to avoid locking
the stdio streams anywhere.

the patch looks ok to me.

note that it may expose an issue mentioned in

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24963

concurrent fflush(0) and freopen(fp) may deadlock
as they choose different lock ordering.
