Sorry, I meant when configuring the Kerberos code.  If you didn't give 
any special options, then how it chose to initialize the library 
probably comes down to whether there's a stub for pthread_once in the C 
library, and maybe which compiler and linker got used for the build.

If you still have the krb5 build tree, could you grep for 'pthread' in 
the config.cache file at the top of the build tree?

Looks like no pthread library there...

And yes, going into the Kerberos code will cause it to check whether 
the initializers got run (and in most configurations, the first time, 
should actually run the initializers).

Please try out the attached patch.  It's a bit more paranoid about 
checking for real pthread support versus broken stubs.  If that doesn't 
fix it, we'll need to do some debugging to figure out what's going 
wrong.
