ACK that adding a LIB_PTHREAD is the correct solution, but...

Aargh; sorry for not noticing this sooner, but you copied a bug from
Jim's patch, which in turn Jim copied from existing code.  According to
automake, LDFLAGS is for -L and other flags that must come early in the
command line, but LDADD is for -l and other flags that must come late in
the command line.  It doesn't quite matter on Linux, which has lazy
linking if you specify -l too early, but it breaks compilation on cygwin
if you get it in the wrong order.

I'm working up a followup patch that moves LIB_PTHREAD (and other libs)
out of LDFLAGS and into LDADD.
