Okay, after scratching my head recompiling things over and over again
for a while, I think it turns out that GNU pthreads 2.0.7 (beta only)
seems to require 686+ (yet another CMOV.. compile error). The /
current/ version works fine in DOSBox 0.72 unlike /beta/'s. Lemme go
test on my real 586 and see if the p7zip with "current" pth works
okay ... yup. (Michael Kostylev was the guy who previously compiled
4.57 and 4.58, but he used old FSU Pthreads instead for whatever
reason.)

Very annoying. Oh well. Plus, to make matters worse, I can't seem to
recompile pth 2.0.7, the instructions don't seem to work (autoconf
temp files "file not found" errors, ring a bell anyone?): "bash djgpp/
djconfig.sh".

Oh well, Happy New Year everyone! FreeDOS + DJGPP 2k9, ftw!    ;-)
