gthread.la file doesn't note that pthread is a dependancy, so linking with
libtool against libgthread breaks. It seems the workaround for libtool not
understanding -pthread doesn't work, so we use the same thing as linux, and
convert -pthread to -lpthread. gtk2 now builds to completion on -current
Note that this has no impact on 1.6.1 as it doesn't use -pthread.
GLib is a library which includes routines for C, providing lists,
trees, hashes, memory allocation functionality and many other things.
glib2 will coexist with glib-1.2.*
