The point of the -pthread option is to ensure that perl doesn't hang
when you load a perl module which dlopens a threaded lib. You really
want this.

Threaded perl is completely different. You probably don't want this
unless you know what you're doing.

The two are not incompatible.

The defaults were chosen wisely, for good reasons.
