Hide DECthreads TRY macro
I guess it seemed like a good idea in 1989, but on VMS, the
pthread_exception.h header exposes TRY and some other simple
English words as macros. Luckily there is a way to hide them
(defining _PTHREAD_EXC_INCL_CLEAN) and that's what this commit
does since Perl now also uses TRY without a prefix or other
guard to avoid collisions.
If anyone still needs what DECthreads TRY does, it was always just
an alias for PTHREAD_TRY_NP, which can be used directly.
If anyone is still using Tru64, it very likely needs an equivalent
patch since the headers and compiler and ancient threading
implementation share a common origin.
