*I see that in the svn repository, externals/Makefile calls for pthreadGC2 when building with MinGW, while Miller's pd-0.47-1 makefile.mingw calls for pthread. And the last pd-extended for Windows has only pthreadVC.dll in its bin directory.*
Surely extended installer placed pthreadGC2 in the system32 folder or its equivalent sysWOW64
Yes you're right. I have pthreadGC2.dll and libpthread-2.dll in C:\Windows\SysWOW64. (On a Windows10 machine that was upgraded from Windows7). I wonder if compiling the externals with VC would use the pthreadVC.dll in pd/bin. There seems to be no other copy of pthreadVC.dll on my system. As I understand it, vanilla is built with VC. In the past I built my own externals with VC. Extended used MinGW but I was never able to get a working setup myself.
