neal and myself have be trying to compile perl-0.5.8 against his pthreads, miniperl had been segfaulting doe to a linker problem, apparently a dummy initialisation function was being linked to from libc instead of the real one from libpthreads.
It appears this problem is partly because perl specifically mentions -ls at the liniing stage. To confirm this i added -lc to neals tests in libpthread/tests and they fail also. So at the moment if you are having problems a workaround is to just to not mentioning -lc at the linking stage. I have compiled a working miniperl but make minitest hangs after a few dozen tests so there are other problems lurking there.... im not sure if they are associated with libpthreads.
