You realize that the package build sets ${LDFLAGS} in the environment?

If it has the same problem when built from the package directory, that
would likely be because ".../pthread/Makefile" overwrites ${LDFLAGS}.
I suggest a solution would be to identify another variable in that
file that's unique to that directory, like ${PTHREAD_LDFLAGS}, or put
one in if there isn't. Such would minimize side effects, while giving
us a knob at the top to try different pthreads libraries.
