Don't you have to make sure you use the right CFLAGS & LDFLAGS for pthreads?
Something like the XTHREADLIB & XTHREAD_CFLAGS settings in libX11/configure.ac.
You may be getting them by accident now, via this bit of the xserver
configure.ac:
if test "x$GLX_USE_TLS" = xyes -a "x$AIGLX" = xyes; then
GLX_DEFINES="-DGLX_USE_TLS -DPTHREADS"
GLX_SYS_LIBS="$GLX_SYS_LIBS -lpthread"
fi
But that doesn't match the flags used by libX11 on several platforms
(-lpthread vs. -pthread on some BSD's, missing -D flags for posix threads
on NetBSD, FreeBSD, & Solaris - though using those may reduce performance
on those platforms as all calls get redirected to thread-safe versions).
