Wrong handling of pthread in FindBoost macro

[Arne Nordmann]

When calling the macro find_package(Boost thread), I get different results for ${Boost_LIBRARIES} the first and the second time I execute cmake. First time, ${Boost_LIBRARIES} contains '/usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt.so;pthread', the second time, ${Boost_LIBRARIES} just contains '/usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt.so' (without pthread).
I attached a very simple cmake script to reproduce the error.

I reported this issue upstream[1] in cmake, where I was told, that the pthread handling is not done by cmake, but patched by Ubuntu.

This issue is still existing in quantal, but no longer in saucy.

it should be fixed since a lot of time.
