 OK, since this really is not my day, I have to admit: even after reverting 
 back to pkgsrc-2004Q4-base (and thus to perl-5.8.5nb6) perl gets compiled 
 w/o pthread-support.
 
 The only change I can think of to the one machine which once compiled a 
 threaded-perl is the change from version 2.0 to 2.0.1 of the kernel and 
 its userland.
