Summary:                    fails to multithread on Solaris 8
Description: 
pigs (spelt pigz) fails to multithread on Solaris 8.

Workaround: use /usr/lib/lwp.

Suggest changing RPATH to use /usr/lib/lwp
LD_OPTIONS=-R/usr/lib/lwp


It's possible a patch will fix also, please find it, check it's still
public and put in checkinstall if you think the patch is the solution.

Ah yes, it's the RPATH of libpthread.so that matters.

Use wrapper script with LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
