I've been working on this and am encountering problems I need guidance 
on. GnuPG 1.9.93 depends on libassuan built with pth. GnuPG 1.9.93 and 
pinentry also depend on pth. Currently, security/gnupg-devel and 
security/pinentry build pth locally and link statically to the pth 
library to avoid conflicts with native pthreads on NetBSD. I can 
eliminate the static linking to pth and make libassuan, gnupg-devel and 
pinentry dependant on pth, however, I noticed that having pth causes 
problems with other packages (perl won't build) on NetBSD.

Recommendations?
