Oh, never mind.  I should have searched the archives more thoroughly.

It seems that with our native pthreads, I no longer need pth.  The
packages that depended on it will compile and run with the native
pthreads instead of pth.  I found this in the January 2003 archives of
current-users.

Sorry to have intruded!
