It is building with thread.c but it should not be unless I am misreading
the Makefile. The makefile processing in Project.pm doesn't look nearly
powerful enough to handle this:
# thread.c is needed only for non-WIN32 implementation of path.c ifneq ($(PORTNAME), win32) OBJS += thread.o endif
It will ignore the if and endif lines and process the OBJS line :-(
A quick fix is probably to put some whitespace in front of "OBJS",
although that seems horribly fragile.
