What included pthread.h?  That's explicitly not supported by sshd:

$ grep THREAD auth-pam.c
#ifdef USE_POSIX_THREADS
# error "USE_POSIX_THREADS replaced by UNSUPPORTED_POSIX_THREADS_HACK"
 * Formerly known as USE_POSIX_THREADS, using this is completely unsupported
#ifdef UNSUPPORTED_POSIX_THREADS_HACK

usually comes from bad judgement.
