It should only be a problem if a non-thread app dynamically loads
a threaded app (or vice versa)
As I understand it, the artsdp lib communicates over pipes
with artsd, but before that executes for example mpg123.

If you link artsdsp against libpthread you are always on the winnner
side and it should work regardless if mpg123 uses threads or not.
but artsdsp yaf-splay shouldnt work.

The only problem is that mpg123 is _not_ threaded and should therefore
work with the current (not threaded-linked) artsdsp.
