As far as we're aware of PostgreSQL does not have threading support. The
postgresql server is non-threaded (as opposed to MySQL which for example
is fully threaded). The threads support we're talking about here only
matters for the PgSQL libraries, so they are threadsafe and can be
included/used in other threaded applications, for example PHP.
New ebuilds for libpq/postgresql are on the way that will correctly
reflect this, only libpq will have a "threads" USE flag.
Also, you can use 8.1.4 without problems, it's just not stable yet
because we hadn't time to test it fully and ask for it to be stabled.
8.1.5 will probably become stable during the next month/weeks.
