From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilb...@redhat.com> Peter was preferring configure time detection of pthread_setname_np to guard against my recent breaking of builds on old libc.
I've tested this on: Fedora 20 - modern glibc - works as before RHEL 5 - glibc 2.5: [dgilbert@davidgil-rhel5 try]$ ./bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -name debug-threads=on qemu: thread naming not supported on this host and checked a mingw windows cross build builds. A check on SLES11 is probably worth a try if someone has one to hand.
