-dnl gl_THREADLIB
-dnl ------------
-dnl Tests for a multithreading library to be used.
-dnl If the configure.ac contains a definition of the gl_THREADLIB_DEFAULT_NO
-dnl (it must be placed before the invocation of gl_THREADLIB_EARLY!), then the
-dnl default is 'no', otherwise it is system dependent. In both cases, the user
-dnl can change the choice through the options --enable-threads=choice or
-dnl --disable-threads.
-dnl Defines at most one of the macros USE_POSIX_THREADS, USE_SOLARIS_THREADS,
-dnl USE_PTH_THREADS, USE_WIN32_THREADS
-dnl Sets the variables LIBTHREAD and LTLIBTHREAD to the linker options for use
-dnl in a Makefile (LIBTHREAD for use without libtool, LTLIBTHREAD for use with
-dnl libtool).
-dnl Sets the variables LIBMULTITHREAD and LTLIBMULTITHREAD similarly, for
-dnl programs that really need multithread functionality. The difference
-dnl between LIBTHREAD and LIBMULTITHREAD is that on platforms supporting weak
-dnl symbols, typically LIBTHREAD="" whereas LIBMULTITHREAD="-lpthread".
-dnl Adds to CPPFLAGS the flag -D_REENTRANT or -D_THREAD_SAFE if needed for
-dnl multithread-safe programs.
