pthread checks in libreplace?

[Volker Lendecke]

Hi, Stefan!

In lib/replace/wscript I find a CHECK_FUNCS_IN test for
pthread_create. In source3/wscript there are more tests for
pthread functionality, also setting some CFLAGS and LDFLAGS.
Similar to that, lib/replace seems to have no pthread m4
macros around at all, where source3/configure.in knows quite
something.

Now that I am working towards using mutexes in tdb, it might
be helpful to have more thorough pthread checking in
libreplace, as tdb seems to depend on it.

Question: What is the intention regarding pthread checks in
libreplace? Put more of it there or push them out to the
libreplace users?

Thanks,

Volker
