I have carefully recompiled and made sure that the pthread references are turned off in the make file.  However, the configure file still looks for pthreads.  I can manually run configure and have libxml2 compile without pthread support, but if I use the make file with no special defines, I always get the pthread support.

Rebuild libxml2 _without_ thread support.  This is sort of an
unsupported option.  It works for most of the GNOME cases, but will
causes non-threaded applications (like php) to break.  Note: thread
support is not enabled by default.
