-# SYNOPSIS
-#
-#   ACX_PTHREAD([ACTION-IF-FOUND[, ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND]])
-#
-# DESCRIPTION
-#
-#   This macro figures out how to build C programs using POSIX threads. It
-#   sets the PTHREAD_LIBS output variable to the threads library and linker
-#   flags, and the PTHREAD_CFLAGS output variable to any special C compiler
-#   flags that are needed. (The user can also force certain compiler
-#   flags/libs to be tested by setting these environment variables.)
-#
-#   Also sets PTHREAD_CC to any special C compiler that is needed for
-#   multi-threaded programs (defaults to the value of CC otherwise). (This
-#   is necessary on AIX to use the special cc_r compiler alias.)
-#
-#   NOTE: You are assumed to not only compile your program with these flags,
-#   but also link it with them as well. e.g. you should link with
-#   $PTHREAD_CC $CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS $LDFLAGS ... $PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS
-#
-#   If you are only building threads programs, you may wish to use these
-#   variables in your default LIBS, CFLAGS, and CC:
-#
-#          LIBS="$PTHREAD_LIBS $LIBS"
-#          CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $PTHREAD_CFLAGS"
-#          CC="$PTHREAD_CC"
-#
-#   In addition, if the PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE thread-attribute constant
-#   has a nonstandard name, defines PTHREAD_CREATE_JOINABLE to that name
-#   (e.g. PTHREAD_CREATE_UNDETACHED on AIX).
-#
-#   ACTION-IF-FOUND is a list of shell commands to run if a threads library
-#   is found, and ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND is a list of commands to run it if it
-#   is not found. If ACTION-IF-FOUND is not specified, the default action
-#   will define HAVE_PTHREAD.
-#
-#   Please let the authors know if this macro fails on any platform, or if
-#   you have any other suggestions or comments. This macro was based on work
-#   by SGJ on autoconf scripts for FFTW (http://www.fftw.org/) (with help
-#   from M. Frigo), as well as ac_pthread and hb_pthread macros posted by
-#   Alejandro Forero Cuervo to the autoconf macro repository. We are also
-#   grateful for the helpful feedback of numerous users.
