Wow, that is strange. Someone else told me NetBSD supports threads, and
doesn't need any special compile flags, but of course, it has to have
pthread.h to support threads. NetBSD 1.6.1 is very current, so it isn't
an old OS.

Can you compile if you remove the pthread.h include? No special compile
flags should be required.
