It's slightly racy but I assume in a real libc it can be initialised
earlier than the hook calls while still in single-threaded mode (I had
a quick attempt with __attribute__((constructor)) but didn't get far).
Even with the race, under normal circumstances calling the prctl() twice
is not a problem. I think the risk here is that someone disables the ABI
via sysctl and the ABI is enabled for some of the threads only.
