glibc-devel-2.5-12 is installed, /usr/lib64/libpthread.so exists. This is a very basic CentOS 5 x86_64 install from
DVD,'yum update' afterwards. I only installed the packages that were in the BuildRequire list of the SRPM. I would like
toset up this box just for testing my 8.1 and 8.2 database apps against the new version.  

Pls let me know if you need some files in the BUILD directory (e.g. config.log).

My only diff from the original SPEC file is:

308c308
< %configure --disable-rpath --enable-thread-safety-force \
---
> %configure --disable-rpath \
