>Description:
when compiling glib2 (and others?)

(i found this problem on pkgsrc-irix and pkgsrc-debian)

on platforms where libpthread.so is just 1 lib in /usr/lib
the build fails... the reason for this is that the pkgsrc
scripts (i tought it was pthread.buildlink2.mk) specificly look
for a libthread.so.* symlink..

provide the symlink and the problem is fixed..

but i guess it would be nicer if the scripts detected a single
libpthread.so install. (or bootstrap would automaticly symlink)

/usr/lib/libpthread.so -> /usr/lib/libpthread.so.0
