We do define std::errc::operation_not_supported unconditionally on
most platforms, but not mingw or djgpp. They don't necessarily
support std::errc::operation_not_permitted either, and so far noone
has made std::thread work on those targets anyway, so that's not a
showstopper.
e.g.
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::system_error'
what(): Enable multithreading to use std::thread: Operation not supported
Aborted
