I rebuilt it and now it does depend on libpthread.  I
think it is because I had openldap-client-2.1.26 which
didn't have a dependency on libpthread, but upgrading
to openldap-client-2.1.28 brought in the dependency.

Too bad these shared libraries can't be made to use
the libgcc trick, so they can still be thread-safe
but not depend on a threads library.  That would
also make it easier to use different thread libraries
for different applications relying on common shared
libraries.
