Hi Bruno,
It looks like it is time for me to start learning m4.
When running ./configure in findutils I see this warning:
checking for pthread.h... yes
...
./configure: line 31218: test: =: unary operator expected
checking for pthread_spin_init... yes
checking for pthread_t... yes
checking for pthread_spinlock_t... yes
Line 31218 is the first line in this block. I believe it is because
$HAVE_PTHREAD_H expands to nothing:
if test $HAVE_PTHREAD_H = 0 || test $HAVE_PTHREAD_SPINLOCK_T = 0; then
HAVE_PTHREAD_SPIN_INIT=0
HAVE_PTHREAD_SPIN_LOCK=0
HAVE_PTHREAD_SPIN_TRYLOCK=0
HAVE_PTHREAD_SPIN_UNLOCK=0
HAVE_PTHREAD_SPIN_DESTROY=0
else
$ grep -n 'HAVE_PTHREAD_H' configure
810:HAVE_PTHREAD_H
5111:as_fn_append ac_header_c_list " pthread.h pthread_h HAVE_PTHREAD_H"
31218: if test $HAVE_PTHREAD_H = 0 || test $HAVE_PTHREAD_SPINLOCK_T = 0; then
31368: HAVE_PTHREAD_H=1
31373: HAVE_PTHREAD_H=0
31377: HAVE_PTHREAD_H=0
31382: #if HAVE_PTHREAD_H
31394: #if HAVE_PTHREAD_H
59474: if test $HAVE_PTHREAD_H = 0; then
It looks like maybe it is due to this?

pthread-h: Fix override of pthread_spinlock_t with non-GNU compilers.
* m4/pthread-spin.m4 (gl_PTHREAD_SPIN): Define through AC_DEFUN_ONCE.
Require gl_PTHREAD_H_DEFAULTS, not gl_PTHREAD_H.
