Sorry, my bad, I was confused by the fact that there is code using 
pthreads in tdb, but it's not used on GNU/Hurd indeed.

The problem is actually the ldap module, which uses pthreads (via libldap):

mmenal at hurd1:~/ldb-1.1.17$ ldd bin/modules/ldb/ldap.so |grep pthread
         libpthread.so.0.3 => /lib/i386-gnu/libpthread.so.0.3 (0x01464000)

This module gets dlopen()'ed by ldb_init(), which triggers the bug 
mentioned (which is also described here: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/faq/libpthread_dlopen.html).

Linking ldb against pthread on GNU/Hurd actually fixes the problem.
