For what it's worth, this seems to be pertinent part of config.log:

[...]
configure:16424: checking for the pthreads library -lpthreads
configure:16462: gcc -o conftest -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wpointer-arith -Winline -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels
-fno-strict-aliasing -D_GNU_SOURCE conftest.c -lpthreads -lz
-lreadline -ltermcap -lcrypt -lresolv -lnsl -ldl -lm -lbsd >&5
conftest.c: In function 'main':
conftest.c:125: warning: 'th' is used uninitialized in this function
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lpthreads
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:16468: $? = 1
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h. */
|
| #define PACKAGE_NAME "PostgreSQL"
[...]

...although the thing is so long that it's hard to tell.

I couldn't find a pthreads library/package/thing anywhere, or at least not
yet. My system *does* have a /usr/lib/libpthread.so (singular), but no
libpthreads (plural). Installing linuxpthreads-devel didn't solve anything.

Any thoughts?
