This seems to be a problem that only occurs on Red Hat 9. The problem
doesn't exist on any other distributions. It is also only an
intermittent problem. It doesn't occur at all on any of the platforms
I build packages on, even Red Hat 9. I don't think this should go into
stable. It is a distribution-specific patch. The problem doesn't exist
in HEAD at all anymore either, or shouldn't, since we copied db4 into
the evolution-data-server tree. A better solution would probably be to
rebuild db3 so that it has libpthread linked. Why it wouldn't be linked,
though, I have no idea.
