When updating world emerge tries to update to glib-2.4.5

Latest version available: 2.4.5
Latest version installed: 2.4.1

The glib configure 2.4.5 fails apparently
because some of the thread libraries can't
be found.

configure: error: I can't find the libraries for the thread implementation
posix. Please choose another thread implementation or
provide information on your thread implementation.
You can also run 'configure --disable-threads'
to compile without thread support.

!!! econf failed

Those are:

libpthread32
libpthreads
libthread
libdce
libthread

The thread libraries in my system are:

/lib/libthread_db-1.0.so
/lib/libthread_db.so.1
/usr/lib/libthread_db.so
/lib/libpthread.so.0
/lib/libpthread-0.61.so
/usr/lib/libpthread.so
/usr/lib/libpthread_nonshared.a
/usr/lib/libpthread.a

and they belong to sys-libs/glibc-2.3.3.20040420-r1
which I have emerged many times already.

Could someone check in their system which package carries
the missing libraries? Say where is libpthread32
from?

Thanks,
