I did run into a missing pthread error after building which was fixed with the following in the mingw platform section of the configure.ac

but that links in *all* libraries statically (not just pthreads).
iirc, a number of externals rely on Pd providing things like pthreadVC.dll. so if we have to provide a few dlls anyhow, i don't see much merit in static linking.
e.g. this fixed the runtime problem for me: cp /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libwinpthread-1.dll bin/
