Subject: Extensions pthreads
From: tomas@homelan.lt

I've failed to find hints about why generated "configure" specifically ignores
pthread* libraries, e.g.:
...
  case milter in
  c|c_r|pthread*) ;;
  *)
      LIBS="-lmilter $LIBS"
   ;;
  esac
...

Can extensions with pthreads be safely created or there are some hard-to-catch 
problems with that?

{I've actually have created one such extension (has lots of worker pthreads) 
which seems to work fine, but I wonder about possible troubles.}
