If you have set SYMVER_ENABLED when building libc, then you may not have 
thr_getscheduler(), thr_setscheduler() and thr_setschedparam() in the 
src/lib/libc/sys/Versions.def file for the syscalls. (Path and syscall 
name may vary...)

I discovered that after much trial and error. I then couldn't get 
thunderbird or firefox to successfully resolve DNS so in the end gave up 
and rebuilt everything without symbol versioning. The installworld was 
fun...
