How can we test if libpq needs to call that? Seems that is an issue
whether we are threaded or not, no?

Done.

There is a new test program in src/tools/thread that needs to be run for
every platform for 7.5. We can't use the 7.4.X tests because it didn't
report individual function tests, just one general value. We need
individual test reports for 7.5. Run the test program and post the
results and I will get it updated. The test output on my bsd/os machine
is:Make sure you have added any needed 'THREAD_CPPFLAGS' and 'THREAD_LIBS'defines to your template/$port file before
compilingthis program.Add this to your template/$port
