Comment (by viboes):

 I've added the patch and a trace


 {{{
     if <target-os>windows in $(properties)
     {
       echo "************************************************************"
 ;
       echo "windows build."           ;
       echo "************************************************************"
 ;

       api = win32 ;
     }
     else
     {
       echo "************************************************************"
 ;
       echo "pthread build."           ;
       echo "************************************************************"
 ;
     }
 }}}


 and it doesn't works for me on MinGW. It seems the test fails always.

 Do you have any idea what could be wrong?
