I don't think that statement is true.

IIRC the procedure for using GNUstep's libobjc is:
1. configure/build/install gnustep-make (no special options required)
2. build/install libobjc
3. go back and configure/build/install gnustep-make again

The --with-thread-lib option is to tell configure what thread library to try to use with libobjc. If there is no libobjc installed then you can't use a thread library with ilibobjc.

When using GCC's libobjc, -make figures out what threading library to use from the already installed libobjc.

In order to use GNUstep's version of libobjc, however, -make must be configured using --with-thread-lib because libobjc is not yet installed.

My problem is that using --with-thread-lib="-lpthread" has no effect. $(GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES)/config.make ends up as;

ifndef objc_threaded
objc_threaded:=
endif
