   Hi,

       In  the function xmlInitThreads present in the threads .c file the
   null check for pthread_key_create is present twice on line numbers 810
   and 818(version 28). Is this an oversight?

 oversight definitely, note though that there is no pthread_key_delete
test, i.e. we don't free the data (which caused some toubles in amd
the automounter recently where libxml2 was dlopen'ed). But that's a
different (and quite complex) issue.
In the same function null checks are not present for pthread_cond_destroy
and pthread_cond_wait. Is this by design? 
Plus right at the beginning there are two extern declarations for
pthread_key_create one with parameters and another without, maybe that's how
it works but I am not sure
