- Subject: [build, doc] Remove --enable-threads=solaris support
We still have support for --enable-threads=solaris (the old Unix
International thread library) in GCC. This is pretty pointless IMO:
* Both libthread and libpthread are only two different interfaces to the
same implementation.
* Most of our runtime libraries don't support libthread at all.
* The support is barely tested if at all, and has created user confusion
who assumed that they should configure with --enable-threads=solaris
when building on Solaris. I've already clarified install.texi to
avoid this.
The following patch removes (hopefully) all remnants of that support,
both in code and docs.
Tested by a i386-pc-solaris2.11 bootstrap without regressions and
verifying that a --enable-threads=solaris runs into the expected error
configuring gcc.
Will apply to mainline soon.
