I'd try to get the ACX_PTHREAD macro from the autoconf archive and work with that. Any of its shortcomings should be discussed with its maintainer (or on this list, FWIW) and incorporated into an improved version of the macro. That way, others can profit, too (both those that use the improved macro, as well as those that will eventually try to compile your package and don't have to hack around to get it to work with their threads support). Another general note: it's generally a bad idea to test for operating system versions. info Autoconf "Why Not Imake" has reasons.
