libc 6 hasn't been officially released yet and it'll be a little while before any distribution includes it as a stable package. I'd suggest just getting a normal pthreads package and being careful that the functions you use are MT safe. When there is a stable libc 6 release your program will likely compile out of the box still. (at least the thread API will be the same) -douglas
