I assume you were using 7.4.0, rather than 7.4.2. Current CVS has in
template/solaris:
# tools/thread/thread_test must be run
# -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS enables 5-arg getpwuid_r, among other
things
if test "$GCC" = yes
then THREAD_CPPFLAGS="-D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS"
THREAD_LIBS="-pthread"
else THREAD_CPPFLAGS="-mt -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS"
THREAD_LIBS="-lpthread"
fi
That should work for you.
