    I think you mean libpthreads.a, not libpthread.a
    
    issue a simple : grep libpthread /usr/.smdb./*.inv
    and you'll get : OSFPGMRxxx

If you're really looking for "libpthread.a", that is, a static library for
the POSIX threads interface, you're looking in the wrong place. There's no
such thing as a POSIX threads interface until Digital UNIX 4.0. Earlier
systems had only DCE threads, which live in libpthreads{.a|.so}.

Also, be aware that there is no static library (.a) for threads (either DCE
or POSIX) on Digital UNIX 4.0.
