Summary: crossfire-client-1.12.0 build failure under Slackware 12.2

Initial Comment:
The build  of the crossfire-client-1.12.0 breaks for me under Slackware 12.2 /x86-32

I think that's a missing linking option for pthread.

Attached the full console.log with all commands run and stdout/stderr.

The following is standard error only:

mapdata.c: In function 'mapdata_set_anim_layer':
mapdata.c:805: warning: 'speed_left' may be used uninitialized in this function
mapdata.c:805: warning: 'phase' may be used uninitialized in this function
sound.c: In function 'MusicCmd':
sound.c:177: warning: too many arguments for format

Message:
Just loaded 12.2 on a VirtualBox... Used vanilla setup... no kde and such,
but devel tools... d/l top of SVN... builds just fine without the patch.
Stock install, no upgrades, nothing.  So I cannot reproduce.  If you want
it "fixed", you need to give more info on your setup or just try the patch
and report back.  Setting this pending.  Please respond.

Falling back to good old tarball.  Unpack in the client/trunk directory
with a current SVN checkout... allow the files to overwrite.

Message:
Removing inadequate pthread.patch.  Replacing with ax_pthread.patch.  The
new patch file affects:

A      macros/ax_pthread.m4
M      gtk/Makefile.am
M      configure.ac
M      x11/Makefile.am
M      gtk-v2/src/Makefile.am

Someone please test on Slackware (other build test reports welcome too).

Message:
Actually, the more I think about it the more I think that won't help since
its not enough different from the original to be likely to find the
Slackware package - based on the fact that you had to add -lpthread to fix
it.

Message:
Can you try applying this patch and re-running ./configure on Slackware?
See attached pthread.patch
I'm no autoconf genius.  I ripped this off some other project.  We need to
see if it finds the pthread stuff and builds without manual tampering.

Message:
UPDATE: the problem only affects the x11/ subcomponent, since I reached a
successful build by editing by hand

x11/Makefile

adding -lpthread to LIBS, and then restarting the build from the top
source directory.
