Summary: check for true in diffrent paths, -pthread support

Initial Comment:
This patch fixes/adds two things in configure.in
1) add support for the "-pthread" CC flag . (Tested on
NetBSD-current, should work on FreeBSD and Linux, too)
2) /bin/true isn't available on NetBSD, so check for it
in different places.

I just noticed a problem with the entire -Kthread/-Kpthread
approach: there are specific additional checks needed for
pthreads, e.g. for SCOPE_SYSTEM, for various Solaris
versions, etc. Those need to happen independently of the
means to activate threads. Would you please revise your
patch to address this issue as well?

Forgot to mention that it's against Python 2.3cvs
