Exactly. The gcc on that box had been updated to 3.2.2 but the glibc
is still an old one that uses __thread as a formal parameter name in
one of the prototypes in pthread.h.

I fixed it this morning by changing the header file to avoid the use
of __thread given that it is now a reserved word in gcc.
