Yes.  But threads vs. no threads is a very fundamental runtime issue.
Most modules compiled for one will not work with the other.  Pure Perl
modules are not a problem, of course.  But any module which uses C
code is going to need a compatible runtime to load against.

Building DBI, and especially DBD::MySQL and DBD::pg, is harder than I
thought.  The DBD::* back-ends in particular require the client
headers/libraries at compile time and maybe even the client binaries
at run time.

I did enable threading, though, and I have uploaded
unattended-4.1a-pre1 to <http://unattended.sourceforge.net/testing/>.
You should only need -linuxboot.zip; in particular, the
Z:\install\linuxaux directory, whose Perl now has threading enabled.

Give it a try with the Debian modules and let us know how it fails
now?
