Can I confirm that you tried the '-lpthread' in addition to the #include
in the PR comment? If so, can you confirm that you've got a libpthread.a
or libpthread.so in /lib or /usr/lib and that it contains the symbol
__errno_location?

As you said you haven't upgraded, the system *ought* to work as shipped.
But it's possible (albeit unlikely) that your C library was not build
with threading support or that you're missing the ptherad library -
maybe you need to install it as a separate package?

Good luck,
Rup.
