You are using Etch right? If you are then install the "libc-compat" libraries. If you upgrade to Lenny or Sid... non-posix threads (or non pthreads) are no longer supported. You will have a extrememly difficult time getting them to compile using the "linux" architecture. It is a function of GLIBC being updated by the "owner" of it, not Debian.
