Thanks, Mezz.  I didn't realize I had selected that option.  I am not
sure why it is even there if it breaks ports.  Seems like this is the
only one, though, so maybe it can be fixed?  The configure could just
link with pthread.  It should be safe either way when just testing the
compiler, don't you think?

Cheers,
Sean
