Subject: [PATCH nd/threaded-index-pack] index-pack: disable threading if NO_PREAD is defined

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2012 21:05:29 +0700

NO_PREAD simulates pread() as a sequence of seek, read, seek in
compat/pread.c. The simulation is not thread-safe because another
thread could move the file offset away in the middle of pread
operation. Do not allow threading in that case.
