Comment (by Eric3D):

 @helen, I just enqueue the script in functions.php
 {{{
 function include_thickbox_scripts()
 {
     wp_enqueue_script('thickbox', null, array('jquery'));
 }
 add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'include_thickbox_scripts');
 }}}
 Then I use jQuery to add ''class'' and ''rel'' value to the WP gallery
 items
 {{{
 $(".gallery-icon a").addClass("thickbox").attr("rel","gallery");
 }}}
 I understand it's no longer used in core, but some plugins still use it.

 @swissspidy, I understand Thickbox is old and not updated. I did not find
 an official Github (or other) depository for it. Since the thread you
 refer accepted the change, the file bundled in core is NO LONGER the same
 as the original. Would it make sense to create a separate branch as
 "WordPress Thickbox"?
