(1) Don't look in acconfig.h. It's input only to autoconf. The
configure script generates config.h.
(2) Did you do a "make clean" after the configure call?
(3) If WITH_THREAD is undefined in config.h, try running
configure --verbose --with-thread
It should find -lthread. If not, check if your system contains that
library (probably /lib/libthread.*).
