If the input buffer exceeds the stack auxiliary buffer, qsort will
malloc a temporary one to call mergesort. Since C++ standard does
allow the callback comparison function to throw [1], the glibc
implementation can potentially leak memory.
The fixes uses a pthread_cleanup_combined_push and
pthread_cleanup_combined_pop, so it can work with and without
exception enables. The qsort code path that calls malloc now
requires some extra setup and a call to __pthread_cleanup_push
anmd __pthread_cleanup_pop (which should be ok since they just
setup some buffer state).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
