Some linkers, namely the one on IRIX are rather strict concerning the order or arguments for symbol resolution, i.e. no libraries listed before objects or other libraries on the command line are considered for symbol resolution. That means that -lpthread can't work if it's put in CFLAGS, because it will not be considered for resolving pthread_key_create in conftest.o. Use $LIBS instead.
