Solaris 2.6 libthread uses LDT:s which is why Solaris 2.6 crashes
when Wine and pthread tries to modify the LDT:s.
I can't imagine that Solaris 7 doesn't so it doesn't suprise
me that your patch didn't work 100%.
In addition pthread uses the gs (or was it fs even worse)
register that Windows application need to be able to use.

I will investigate.
