mit-pthreads contains assembly code system call stubs because it wraps
a number of system calls in order to track file descriptor usage and
avoid blocking the entire process when one thread needs to wait for
i/o completion.  until someone writes ARM versions of those stubs (or
does a better integrated threads package for NetBSD), it won't work on
the ARM..
