Why are you using target anyway? Gnash isn't a compiler, you shouldn't need it.

Simply put:
--build is the machine your program's built on
--host is the machine your program runs on
--target is the machine your program compiles things for

The internet has examples of people getting this error when libpthread.so is 
corrupt or points to the system libpthread.so.0 or libpthread_nonshared.a. 
Unfortunately if it wasn't the fault of calling --target then I wouldn't know 
how to fix that other than reinstall/upgrade the package that provides 
libpthread.so and hope for the best.
