[Enlightenment-release] Pre-release tarballs for efl 1.18.1

Hello.

Hi Stefan,
actually there is a big bug with osx semaphores that is still there.
It is a regression that I was almost sure was introduced after the
1.18 release, but it appears I was wrong, and it already landed in
1.18.
When building a lot (e.g. running plenty of edje_cc) nasty things
happen, edje_cc segfaults, everything goes wrong when evas cannot
create thread queues.
And when I tested the homebrew receipe with a self-packaged 1.18.1, of
course it did not show up then...
I am very sorry, but I think the release should be delayed by a day,
there are two more patches to backport to overcome this :/
- first one is 180b24f2a0dbf4476e1baf2fc535ebd422a5abce it does not
fix the problem entirely, but is required for the next patch which
actually solves everything;
- 5db3357f4029ad88b14ceb7b125d981e23889ec8 - which completely fixes the problem.
After applying these two patches to the sources you distributed, the
nasty bug died. Considering the advanced stage of the release, I
prefer to let you handle those.
Sorry for the trouble :/

I backported both commits and made a new pre-release. Please give it a
test. If nothing shows up it will get final in 24h.
