Read UPDATING:
$ grep --context=2 nvidia /usr/src/UPDATING
libraries linked to libkse, then it is also recommended
that you map libkse to libpthread. Anyone that is using
nvidia supplied drivers and libraries should use a libmap.conf
that maps libpthread to libc_r since their drivers/libraries
do not work with libpthread.
If you are unfamiliar with libmap.conf, read the man page for more info:
$ man libmap.conf

If you still can't figure it out, reply back listing the steps you've
taken in trying to resolve the problem.
Hope that helps,
