So

* macOS baseline is bumped 
(<https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=7dcee9790c18a594236dc32a534c20f1e7447ee6> 
"bumb MacOS baseline to 10.9")

* and all toolchains are now considered to have thread-safe statics 
(<https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=6517fd2107a5a71290afad8850da0eab51519bc6> 
"HAVE_THREADSAFE_STATICS sould always be true")

(and writing typo-free commit messages is hard).
