Interestingly, cygwin.h includes this:

/* Binutils does not handle weak symbols from dlls correctly.  For now,
   do not use them unnecessarily in gthr-posix.h.  */
#define GTHREAD_USE_WEAK 0

but mingw32 doesn't.  I assume that mingw32 binutils has exactly the
same bug, so this is perhaps a mistake.  Danny?

Anyway, I'd have no objection to 

#ifdef OBJECT_FORMAT_ELF

because it's only ELF targets where we're sure this works.
