Is it any way to build pthreads without building libc?

This is the gcc mailing list.  gcc does not include a libc.  You would
have to ask the libc maintainers.  You didn't mention which libc you are
thinking of, but if it is glibc, see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ .

As far as I know there is no way to build the pthread library
separately, but it's quite possible that there is some way to do it that
I don't know about.
