And yet the Makefile.PL message tells us that "PDL threads are unrelated to
perl threads (usethreads=y)!" and "Enabling perl threads will not help!".
Am I right in understanding you are telling us that is simply not so (wrt
Cygwin, at least) ?

Presumably you still need to link to the pthread library (-lpthread). How
did you achieve that ?

I haven't (yet) managed to get this to work on either Cygwin, Win32 or
inux  - though that might just be me.

What's a good way to measure performance differences between the threaded
and unthreaded PDL builds ?

Cheers,
Rob
