Larry, now that I have put the thread testing into configure, I am ready
to deal with Unixware. In fact I posted to the list asking you about it
but was too lazy to look up your email address.

Anyway, I think the only solution is going to be to use the -K flag on
all compiles on that platform if you want threads, so anything that uses
libpq will need it. We don't have a client-level flags option at this
point, but we can add it, or just the flag for the backend compile too.

I think that is our best option.
