This turned out to be a bad idea as it breaks versions of libtool that don't in the manner you're seeing now. Go through your build dependencies and see which have '-pthread' in the .la file, then file bugs against them telling them to either downgrade to libtool (<< 1.5-2) or upgrade to libtool (>> 1.5-6). It is a bug for packages to use libtool 1.5-3 thru 1.5-5, make sure you're not either. Scott -- Have you ever, ever felt like this? Had strange things happen? Are you going round the twist?
