On OpenBSD, I had to put -pthread into CFLAGS for *all* of Subversion,
because otherwise the linker complained about unresolved symbols wrt
pthread when the GNOME keyring library was loaded at run time.

The OpenBSD Subversion 1.6 port has this in its Makefile:

  # gnome-keyring depends on dbus depends on pthread, so svn won't be able
  # to load libsvn_auth_gnome_keyring without this:
  WANTLIB-main+= pthread
  CFLAGS+= -pthread

I don't know if that is related. Mentioning it just in case it helps.
