Not sure what you are asking here. I never cross-built Guile, I always build the MinGW port natively. And pthreads detection is not broken, the build process correctly detects that I have pthreads installed. But if I want to produce a working Guile (or even get the build to run to completion, since that involves running Guile to compile Scheme files), I need to disable threads.
