Sergey,
pthreads library (including pthread.h) has been available with the MinGW
for the last couple of years at least? Are you using an older MinGW?
If you don't want concurrent threads you can simply comment out:
#define Concurrent 1 // in unicon/config/win32/gcc/define.h
and also comment out -lpthread from makedefs32.top in the same directory.
If you want threads and can't find the pthread library in mingw I will ship
you the necessary files from my machine.
