There are two possibile cases:
1. Your thread system is screwed. That does mean, that there is a
/usr/include/pthread.h file, but this doesn't seem to define a single
function.

2. You have an old config.cache lying around from the configuration on
another machine. Try again after removing.

This is no problem, only a warning and has nothing to do with the error
later on.
