	How can it be something else when the proposed fix is to do:

-                 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.2"
+                 gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.2 \
+                 gthread-2.0 >= 2.0.2"

	To a scad of configure.in's PKG_CONFIG checks ? that just has to mean
that the -pthread is getting fumbled somewhere inside pkg-config -
surely.

	For someone that can replicate this problem; I'd be very interested in
the difference between the output of:

	pkg-config --cflags gthread-2.0
and
	pkg-condig --cflags linc

	It looks to me that this is just an artefact of people using old
pkg-configs. Is there a PKG_REQUIRE_VERSION(>=0.14) or somesuch we can
do to help people ?

	Regards,

		Michael.
