    gthread: fix minor errno problem in GCond
    
    The return value from `g_cond_wait_until()` is calculated, based on the
    value of `errno` after reacquiring the mutex.  This is a problem because
    `errno` can be overwritten in the case the mutex is contended (in which
    case the slow-path code will re-enter the kernel).
    
    Perform the calculation before reacquiring the mutex.
