Which is the main reason I didn't do a pr on it.  But from reading other
parts of the thread, it seems that ports should not be using -pthread
anyway... would it be worthwhile to submit patches to remove -pthread
(and, for that matter, -lpthread and other variants) in favor of
${PTHREAD_LIBS} regardless of wether `cc -pthread` is an error or a
no-op, or some magical auto-thread-library-selector?
