 If we want to add the proper pthread dependency to MesaLib, the attached
 patch is the way to do it.  I'm in favor of going this way so that
 the pkgsrc MesaLib is thread-safe.  This will cause packages that
 include MesaLib/buildlink3.mk to indirectly pull in pthread.buildlink3.mk
 so that -lpthread will resolve correctly.  However, this needs testing
 on a NetBSD-1.6.2 system to see if it builds correcty using GNU pth.
