It rings one for me, also pthread-related but on a different architecture (Irix).  The problem was with "system scope" pthreads and non-root users, and I solved it by avoiding the call to pthread_attr_setscope() in erts/lib_src/pthread/ethread.c:206.
I've also run Erlang on ARM v5l without problems, but I did all of that as root.

I'm too lazy to (download, unzip and) grep the emulator sources for "Failed to set thread main status", so it would help if you said what C function contains "there".
