I think it's good to have it, at least for MacOS X. The ideal way would be to have not #ifdefs in the backends for threads/forks at all. We don't need to convert all the backends to sanei_thread_*, I guess just the newer and more commonly used ones is enough. By the way: what about Windows?

Looks like a local problem on the test platform. So I think it's only the "pthread.h is there but no -lpthread" problem. You'll get an error like "no port of getenv()" in this case because the test for getenv() fails because -lpthread doesn't work. Quite confusing if you don't know what to look for :-) Bye, Henning
