Relax -- no need to panic.

The sys directory contains just the kernel sources, but the
linuxthreads package needs bits of source code from the rest of the
system.  Most people would simply use cvsup(1) to get all of the
system sources (including the kernel sources), however as that comes
to about 315Mb, you may not want to download all that. [Of course,
once you've got the bulk sources, then cvsup is excellent at keeping
them up to date using a minimum amount of network bandwidth].

If you have installation media you should be able to install system
sources from there, or you can take eg. a copy of the
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard.supfile and edit it to only pull
down the 'src-gnu' collection.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
