There is no way to build LLVM with ENABLE_THREADS=1 but without pthreads.

Some MSYS packages have pthread.h (and pthreads DLL),
and some issues on MSYS;

  - lib/System/Win32/ threading stuff will not be used at all
  - not able to build LLVM free from pthread.dll.

The option --without-pthreads might be needed to configure.

It is not an issue on mingw-cross-unixen because (AFAIK) mingw-cross does not
have pthreads/w32.
