Making devel/libpthread-stubs is no help, it seems to only create pthread-stubs.pc. Seems like I___m missing something fundamental but I___m lost as to what it is. Any ideas?

This seems like a regression, but it may be intentional.

pkg which /usr/local/lib/libpthread-stubs.so
/usr/local/lib/libpthread-stubs.so was installed by package libpthread-stubs-0.3_6

pkg upgrade libpthread-stubs
Upgrading libpthread-stubs from 0.3_6 to 0.4...

pkg which /usr/local/lib/libpthread-stubs.so
/usr/local/lib/libpthread-stubs.so was not found in the database

libpthread-stubs.so is also no longer present in the file system,
which I checked with locate after updating its database.
