Actually, the problem is that tslib is linked incorrectly.
The pthres, linear, etc. modules are not linked to libts so theyre 
missing symbols when an attempt is made to load them.
To confirm, do

LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libts-1.0.so.0 <args>

tslib modules will resolve symbols properly so tslib will work.

A quick patch to tslib to link those modules against libts is below.
A little dirty linking against the static libs, but it works!

Add to tslib_1.0.bb SRC_URI.
