That's the easiest way.  You can also explicitly link applications 
with -lthr instead of -lc_r.  And since libthr and libc_r are both 6 
characters long, you could also use ed/sed/etc. to s/libc_r/libthr/ in 
the executable itself.  

Also, there is a patch (I think it's still a patch) floating around 
the mailing list archives to use an external config file so you can 
replace the threading library at run-time per-executable.
