 I actually got interested in all this windows stuff yesterday (no, I
 can't explain why), and played around with getting it built.  Here's
 the proof:

Cool 

 + There is no Win32 implementation of the simgear/threads stuff, so
   MinGW (and MSVC) builds cannot use threads. 

see 
Open Source POSIX Threads for Win32
http://sources.redhat.com/pthreads-win32/

This works fine with MingW or MSVC and FlightGear

Note: There is a potential problem if SDL ever spawns 
a thread, but we shouldn't need to ever do that.
 This is a being worked on 

Cheers

The binary package for Windows available on the FG site
is build with pthreads enabled.
