You mean like attached patch ? That is safe and can be applied.
My machine has problems with two configure tests with --enable-thread-safety.
1. the snprintf long long int check that uses int64 as variable name which is
a typedef in sys/inttypes.h
2. whether strerror_r returns int check fails with a redefine of named function
from string.h
No idea how to fix those, but workaround is easy :-(
-lpthread can be removed from PTHREAD_LIBS, the lib is a compat symlink to
-lpthreads, I guess it does not hurt eighter.
