src/libpthread is not in 4.x and can not be made to work in 4.x.
In 4.x, your only solution is to use src/libc_r, which is now
marked for deprecation in -current (6.x).  If you want reliable
Java support, I suggest you use -stable (5.x) which has libpthread.
Go ask the -java mailing list for more info.
