>Description:
	/usr/pkg/pthreads/bin/pgcc is broken, because it allows you to
override the -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/pthreads/lib flag accidentally.
>How-To-Repeat:
	try to build a threaded program using pgcc where:

	/usr/pkg/lib/libpthreads.so exists (see devel/pth)

and
	for whatever reason, the build adds a -Wl,-R/usr/pkg/lib to the
cc command.
>Fix:
	it seems that library specifications for the pthreads path
should come *before* any user-specified libraries, since pgcc is
supposed to make the use of -lpthreads transparent.
