The patch looks good, but the subject should be improved. We normally
try to stick to 50 characters (to let "git log --oneline" fit in a 80
columns terminal). 50 is a bit strict and not always followed, but yours
is definitely too long.

Also, the convention is "subsystem: what you did". I'd suggest this:

configure.ac: try -lpthread in $LIBS instead of $CFLAGS

The "to make picky linkers happy" is important, but redundant with the
body of the message.
