I figured it out. I manually removed all -lpthread from Makefiles and
added -D_THREAD_SAFE -pthread to where they should be. And this solved
everything. The script generated from latest KDE CVS really need not
the patch and it works. I slipped from this because the first time I
did not have PTHREAD_LIBS environment added, and the second time I
applied the patch (with only one hunk succeeded).

And the patch to skim also fixes problems, including the new version I
intended to update.
