[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I am "packaging" on a "clean" system, i.e., as few dependancies as
possible. And I have some warnings about certain features not being
included because the libraries are missing.

Further, just compiling by manually adding -pthread seems to be working.
Once I have the defines needed for the other programs I will run "make
check"

Thanks for the quick replies (I was on a plane and could not reply back
earlier).
