I deleted the pthreads packages as suggested but I'm still getting
the same segmentation fault.

gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/pkgsrc/x11/kdebase2/work/kdebase-2.2.1/doc/kd
esu'
/usr/X11R6/bin/meinproc --check --cache index.cache.bz2 ./index.docbook
Segmentation fault - core dumped
gmake[3]: *** [index.cache.bz2] Error 139

Someone asked about a backtrace, so here it is.
