Thats normal with Solaris and MIT threads.
Ignore the link warnings. It should work anyway.

pthreads redefines the hole stdio, but you have somewhere code
that includes some stream function that doesn't exists in pthreads and
then the linker has to use libc and you will get this messages when ld
noticed that __iob is declared differently.

One thing that I didn't get to work on Solaris with MIT threads was gnu readline, but
else almost all things worked.

Yours, Monty
