For the build machine, I also built the old pthreadGC2.dll to make the  
transition easier.  So both -lpthreadGC2 and -lpthread will work on  
the nightly auto-builds.

Part of the assembly process of Pd-extended in packages/win32_inno/ 
Makefile already copies quite a few DLLs, so adding a couple more is  
really easy.  I'd just do that, unless there was a problem with that  
approach.
