Jernej,

libgthread is a seperate package that gets built by the glib recipe.

from the glib.inc:
PACKAGES =+ "gobject-2.0 gmodule-2.0 gthread-2.0 gio-2.0 glib-2.0-utils"

So, this means if you want it to get installed, you need it to be in
your IMAGE_INSTALL or you need another package to RDEPEND on it.

(Basically, wherever you have selected glib, just add 'gthread-2.0' and
you should be set)
