You can probably just run ldd on the result (compiled outside of pbuilder) to figure out what libraries are used, and then apt-file or packages.d.o to search for the package that includes it. Or perhaps check the configure script debug output (whatever it calls itself) to see whats missing.
Note that the configure script could be buggy, and test for the existence of something which isn't actually needed by the rest of the compilation (this happened recently with the xlibs-dev transition). gthread is in the libglib2.0-dev package (note recent application-level bugs regarnding glib dynamic allocation, such as #358071).
