Adding -lpthread to compile code that does not use any sort of
pthread-related things is a Bad Thing on Solaris.

To save my breath, check out the following URL on the subject:

http://docs.sun.com/ab2/coll.45.13/MTP/@Ab2PageView/13888

And scroll down to the section entitled "Linking With libthread or
libpthread"

Cant we make a rule for Solaris that says "if HPSA defined, add
-lthread -lpthread' to LIBS" ?
