As vorlon mentioned in #379413, nothing depends on libpthread2[1]. Nothing
build-depends on libpthread-dev. The package is RC buggy. The package
uses diversions in a very shady way: 

<waldi> yes, i think that needs to be RC, you can't reliable build software 
with this package installed
<waldi> (and, aren't diversions only to be used if the replacement is 
compatible, which it is clearly not in this case?)

The simplest solution, unless there is a use for pthread emulation which
I am unaware of, would be to remove libpthread-dev and libpthread2.

The only other viable fix seems to me to make libpthread-dev stop diverting
other package's headers, and move its headers into a subdirectory. Then
packages that really need it can -I it.

[1] Actually, olsrd-plugins does, but that seems to be by accident.
