Oh, that business :-(. AFAIR we did not much care for any of the
proposed alternatives. Have you thought of any new options?

At this point I'd settle for saying that --enable-thread-safety on
Unixware will generate a library that requires -Kpthread. This is
kinda grungy but it seems that any more-pleasant solution would
require a disproportionate amount of work.
