AFAIR that happens when you link against multiple different threading
libraries.  Either recompile the programs/libraries or add something
like the following to /etc/libmap.conf :

libc_r.so.5             libpthread.so.1
libc_r.so               libpthread.so
libkse.so.1             libpthread.so.1
libkse.so               libpthread.so
