The newer binutils recipe of version 2.21 has a fix for ld which avoids an
issue where weak symbols like pthread_cancel were causing linking to fail when
--no-add-as-needed parameter was passed to ld.

This makes some of the fixes for breakage after gcc dso linking change
unnecessary and this is one of them.

The libraries for linking are not determined automatically now. All
the needed libraries must be specified explicitly.
This patch fixes the issue for missing libpthread library in the linker
script.
