As documented in the bug report, the double checked locking
pattern has inherent issues, and cannot guarantee correct
initialization.
This patch replaces the logic in init_available_charsets()
with the use of pthread_once(3). A wrapper function,
my_pthread_once(), is introduced and is used in lieu of direct
calls to init_available_charsets(). Related defines
MY_PTHREAD_ONCE_* are also introduced.
For the Windows platform, the implementation in lp:sysbench is
ported. For single-thread use, a simple define calls the
function and sets the pthread_once control variable.
Charset initialization is modified to use my_pthread_once().

Dummy my_pthread_once() for single thread use.
include/my_pthread.h:
Declaration for new function my_pthread_once().
mysys/charset.c:
Logic in init_available_charsets() is simplified.
Using my_pthread_once() for all calls to this func.
mysys/my_winthread.c:
Windows implementation of my_pthread_once().
