Threads in APR?

[David Reid <da...@jetnet.co.uk>]

OK, so I know this has been discussed to death, but I thought I'd throw 
this in anyway...

If I'm configuring and building APR as standalone (as I'm doing at 
present) then shouldn't threads be enabled by default?  I realise that 
when configure is run from apache it's fair enough to have them disabled 
if not required, but shouldn't we be assuming enabled for standalone 
building of APR?

I've been looking at it and can't see an easy to tell if it's being 
built standalone in configure so I don't have a patch :(

When build APR by itself, I do get threads.  I can only assume that APR's
configure script either can't figure out how to make threads work, or you
are caching something somewhere that makes the platform think you don't
want threads.
