This isn't correct.  The pthreads library should already be installed by
default.  The package you cite above is an encryption library.

I have a barebones CentOS 5.5 machine here, which I use for testing, and
the devel packages which I have installed are:

libstdc++-devel-4.1.2-48.el5
libxml2-devel-2.6.26-2.1.2.8
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-12.el5_4.6
slang-devel-2.0.6-4.el5
libsepol-devel-1.15.2-3.el5
ncurses-devel-5.5-24.20060715
libtool-ltdl-devel-1.5.22-7.el5_4
newt-devel-0.52.2-15.el5
glibc-devel-2.5-49.el5_5.4
zlib-devel-1.2.3-3
libselinux-devel-1.33.4-5.5.el5
krb5-devel-1.6.1-36.el5_5.5
keyutils-libs-devel-1.2-1.el5
e2fsprogs-devel-1.39-23.el5
unixODBC-devel-2.2.11-7.1

Given that I do not have any problems compiling Asterisk 1.8.0 (including
ooh323, which I had to enable, and chan_mgcp), I would suggest that you
verify that each of these packages is installed on your system.  If you
install any of these, and that fixes the problem, please report back which
package solved the problem.  I'd love to make a configure test to verify
that all required packages are installed before configure will succeed.
