Well, I only have one libthread library on my system I think.
locate libthread turns up this:
/usr/lib/libthread_db.so
/lib/libthread_db-1.0.so
/lib/libthread_db.so.1

Two are symlinks to the actual file, which is:
 ll /lib/libthread_db*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        17036 Apr  7  2003
/lib/libthread_db-1.0.so*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           19 Nov  8 00:04
/lib/libthread_db.so.1 -> libthread_db-1.0.so

So I don't even have the option of using a different libthread_db.
