gcc/4.7: fix C++ exceptions and pthread_exit()

Following the introduction of the support for the musl C library, the
support of C++ exceptions or features like pthread_exit() got broken
even with other libraries such as glibc. This was reported as bug #7028.

The problem was caused by the gcc patch needed to add support for
musl, which modified the libgcc/unwind-dw2-fde-dip.c logic to decide
whether USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME should be enabled or not. It completely
removed the existing logic, replacing it by a single logic based on
the definition of TARGET_DL_ITERATE_PHDR. However, this constant gets
defined by the configure script only for Solaris, or Linux Musl
platforms. For glibc/uClibc, the configure script does not define it,
and therefore USE_PT_GNU_EH_FRAME is not defined, causing issues with
exception handling.

This patch fixes that by restoring all the logic of
libgcc/unwind-dw2-fde-dip.c, and just adding the musl logic as one
more case.

It has been successfully runtime tested using the two code examples
provided in bug #7208, with uClibc, musl and glibc.
