Well, the original report said that we needed to link the backend with
libc_r instead of libc to make libpython happy. If there's not a
separate "libpthread" on your machine then that may well be the case.
The question then is whether we are prepared to do that (and risk
unknown consequences in performance and stability) to support plpython.
