There are three possible ways, as far as I can see:
1. Copy needed files (libgcc_s.so*, maybe /etc/ld.so.*) into the
change root. I know postfix copies /etc/resolv.conf into its
changeroot, for similar reasons. Don't know what naming conventions
arlad use for cache files, but I guess it should be easy to ensure
that there are no naming collisions.
2. Link explicitly with the needed file. That's what I do now, I added
-lgcc_s on the linker command line. Or use LD_PRELOAD for the same
effect, but I'm not very familiar with that feature.
3. At run time, force loading of the needed library before the chroot.
As far as I can see, starting and exiting a dummy thread should be
sufficient.
The last alternative at least has the advantage that it doesn't need
any configuration, it should work on all platforms, do noithing, and
just work as a sanity check of the pthreads implementation.

Ooops.
