[kfreebsd] "Perl cannot run extensions which use threads;"

[Christoph Egger <christoph@debian.org>]

Hi!

  Looking at the build failure of amanda I noticed the error

/usr/bin/perl -I. -I./.libs -I. \
			-MAmanda::Tests -e 'alarm(10); Amanda::Tests::try_threads' \
	|| { echo "Perl cannot run extensions which use threads; consider linking perl" \
		"with -pthread or compiling perl with threading enabled"; false; }
**
ERROR:glib-util.c:45:glib_init: assertion failed: (!g_thread_supported())
/bin/bash: line 3: 73659 Aborted                 (core dumped) /usr/bin/perl -I. -I./.libs -I. -MAmanda::Tests -e 'alarm(10); Amanda::Tests::try_threads'
Perl cannot run extensions which use threads; consider linking perl with -pthread or compiling perl with threading enabled
make[6]: *** [thread-check] Error 1

  I am not sure where this is comming from. Looking at the debian perl
package I can't find anything in the packaging disabling threads and the
patches indicate that treads-related testsuites have been run. Now I'm
not sure what to do with this information, hope some of you (kBSD or
perl people) know better than me ;-)

Regards

    Christoph
