+dnl @synopsis ACX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
+dnl
+dnl This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX
+dnl threads. It sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads
+dnl library and linker flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable
+dnl to any special C compiler flags that are needed. (The user can also
+dnl force certain compiler flags/libs to be tested by setting these
+dnl environment variables.)
+dnl
+dnl Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
+dnl multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise).
+dnl (This is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
+dnl
+dnl If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to
+dnl use these variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
+dnl
+dnl LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
+dnl CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
+dnl LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS $PTHREAD_LDFLAGS"
+dnl CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
+dnl
+dnl In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute
+dnl constant has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE
+dnl to that name (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
+dnl
+dnl ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads
+dnl library is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands
+dnl to run it if it is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified,
+dnl the default action will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
+dnl
+dnl Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform,
+dnl or if you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was
+dnl based on work by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (www.fftw.org)
+dnl (with help from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread
+dnl macros posted by AFC to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
+dnl grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.
