Sorry to disturb you again, but i would have more access to your knowledge.
I understand what you say, but in my case, it disturbs me a little.

Lets take this project as example : https://github.com/gfriloux/botman

As you can see, it uses an m4 macro that will force link to ssp (configure.ac:38).
Later on, deps will be declared (configure.ac:87). One of those deps is eina.
Eina will declare -lpthread from its .pc file.

And this is how i get to the state of having -lssp -lpthread.
In my app, i dont directly start any thread, lower libs do. So it doesnt seem
logical to add -lpthread before declaring the deps.
So should i just remove this m4 macro that seems to be use on quite some projects,
so it works on BSD ?

What is the best way to do it, in your opinion ?
