No, we don't pass the -Kpthread (thread CFLAGS) to the C links.

This is the whole discussion we had back in January/February about forcing
-Kpthread for *ALL* libpq using programs, or dynamically determining
if the image already is linked -Kpthread, or not supporting threads
at all on UW.

#3 is unacceptable to me.
