I think what's going on here is some linker fun with libtool / pkgconfig

On Fedora it appears we end up automatically linked against pthread.so
as a result of libxml2 (or some othe lib) being linked against it. I
expect that Debian isn't doing this implicit linkage for us. In any
case we should rely on Fedora behaviour, so this patch looks reasonable
to me.
