How will libpthread, libthr, etc. be linked in 7.0?

So file a bug report (or fix it) on rtld-elf.  If libmapping
isn't working correctly, then the problem should be fixed,
not glossed over.  Regardless of the links, someone may
want to use libmap.conf to map libthr to libkse or some
other library mapping similarly.
