Actually, in -current libkse is now libpthread, so that is probably
what you want.

You might be able to do this by playing with LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Create a directory with the following:

	$ mkdir ~/lib/i386
	$ cp /usr/lib/libpthread.so.1 ~/lib/i386
	$ ln -s ~/lib/i386/libpthread.so.1 ~/lib/i386/libpthread.so
	$ ln -s ~/lib/i386/libpthread.so.1 ~/lib/i386/libc_r.so.5
	$ ln -s ~/lib/i386/libpthread.so.1 ~/lib/i386/libc_r.so

The actual shared object name is built into the library, so I'm
not sure if making links like this would work.  You may have to
rebuild libpthread with LIB=c_r (line 13 of src/lib/libpthread/Makefile).

You can set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/you/lib/i386 and then invoke
apache.  Do an 'ldd' on the apache executable to make
sure that it is picking up the libraries in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
