        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.

Ok, thanks, I'll stick to the default.
