On my IBM ThinkPad with NetBSD 1.5.3 I tried
to do "make" on /usr/pkgsrc/x11/kde3 and got
this error...

...of which I think that the two lines saying...

c++: unrecognized option `-pthread'
/usr/X11R6/qt3/lib/libqt-mt.so.3: undefined reference to `__pure_virtual'

...looks the most suspicious. I see two seemingly related packages
in /usr/pkg/devel/ for "mit-pthreads" and "unproven-pthreads". Should I
install one of those and re-make kde3? If so which one? Or is it something
else and I've gone off the deep end yet again?

Thanks,
