To help with this, I'm trying to build master on Mingw64, but I'm
missing some threads library (I assume due to the recent addition of
concurrency support):

gcc.exe: error: thread.o: No such file or directory
gcc.exe: error: systhread.o: No such file or directory


mingw has several "threads" libraries;


mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-npth 1.2-2
    New portable threads library (mingw-w64)
mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-port-scanner 1.3-2
    A multi threaded TCP port scanner from SecPoint.com (mingw-w64)
mingw64/mingw-w64-x86_64-winpthreads-git 5.0.0.4573.628fdbf-1 
(mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain) [installed]
    MinGW-w64 winpthreads library

which one should I use?
