libtool does not pass -pthread through

Our libtool does. But gcc might not do the right thing with it. In that case, it's a gcc bug which should be reported to the gcc folks.

I believe using -lpthread over -pthread will cause more problems than its worth. That is, the problems caused by the missing link on some platforms is not nearly as bad as the caused by using -lc instead of -lc_r on other platforms.
