Just 'make PERL_THREADED=true' is probably easier, but the port is
clearly broken. The logic is very oddly set out, but it relies on the
value of PERL_THREADED which neither the Makefile nor any of the .Mk
files defines. I assume that there was supposed to be some test of
whether perl supports threading that never quite made it.
