It is possible to make it work on RH8, but it's not straightforward.
libpthread is pretty basic and used by lots of programs.  You'll
need to do something to keep those other programs working.

Three possibilities:

Look for a Firefox binary built for RH8.

Build Firefox from source instead of installing binaries.
(Probably hard.)

Upgrade the whole system to the current Fedora Core release.
(Is FC2 current?)
