My apologies.  Your previous email sounded like you had built
ports on 5.x and then upgraded some of them on 6.x  You can
use /etc/libmap.conf to be sure:

	libpthread.so		libpthread.so.2
	libpthread.so.1		libpthread.so.2

You might want to check /etc/libmap.conf just to make sure
you don't have anything mapped to libpthread.so.1.

That has been a problem in the past, but I thought they released
a newer driver that works correctly with libpthread and libthr.
