Debian provides static versions:
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root   81959 Feb 25 07:46 /lib/libpthread-0.10.so
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root   97286 Feb 25 07:47 /usr/lib/libpthread.a

As does Redhat 7.3:
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root       105945 Oct 10 09:51 /lib/libpthread-0.9.so*
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       118146 Oct 10 09:51 /usr/lib/libpthread.a
