I'm having an autoconf issue, specifying location of pthreads.
supposedly I can define paths via:
(the ./configure file content: )
=============================
Usage: $0 [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...
To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.
Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.
Configuration:
-h, --help display this help and exit
--help=short display options specific to this package
--help=recursive display the short help of all the included
packages
-V, --version display version information and exit
-q, --quiet, --silent do not print \`checking...' messages
--cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE [disabled]
-C, --config-cache alias for \`--cache-file=config.cache'
-n, --no-create do not create output files
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or
\`..']
_ACEOF
cat <<_ACEOF
Installation directories:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in
PREFIX
[$ac_default_prefix]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in
EPREFIX
[PREFIX]
By default, \`make install' will install all the files in
\`$ac_default_prefix/bin', \`$ac_default_prefix/lib' etc. You can
specify
an installation prefix other than \`$ac_default_prefix' using
\`--prefix',
for instance \`--prefix=\$HOME'.
For better control, use the options below.
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data
[PREFIX/share]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data
[PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
--infodir=DIR info documentation [PREFIX/info]
--mandir=DIR man documentation [PREFIX/man]
_ACEOF
cat <<\_ACEOF
cat <<\_ACEOF
Program names:
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed
program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program
names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed
program names
System types:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
--host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST
[BUILD]

cat <<\_ACEOF
Optional Features:
--disable-FEATURE do not include FEATURE (same as
--enable-FEATURE=no)
--enable-FEATURE[=ARG] include FEATURE [ARG=yes]
--enable-maintainer-mode enable make rules and dependencies not useful
(and sometimes confusing) to the casual
installer
--disable-dependency-tracking Speeds up one-time builds
--enable-dependency-tracking Do not reject slow dependency extractors
--enable-shared[=PKGS]
build shared libraries [default=yes]
--enable-static[=PKGS]
build static libraries [default=yes]
--enable-fast-install[=PKGS]
optimize for fast installation [default=yes]
--disable-libtool-lock avoid locking (might break parallel builds)
--disable-yp disable YP directory support
Optional Packages:
--with-PACKAGE[=ARG] use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
--without-PACKAGE do not use PACKAGE (same as --with-PACKAGE=no)
--with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no]
--with-pic try to use only PIC/non-PIC objects
[default=use
both]
--with-tags[=TAGS]
include additional configurations [automatic]
--with-xslt-config=PATH use xslt-config in PATH to find libxslt
--with-ogg=PREFIX Prefix where libogg is installed (optional)
--with-vorbis=PREFIX Prefix where libvorbis is installed (optional)
--with-curl=PFX Prefix where libcurl is installed (optional)
--with-curl-config=curl-config
Use curl-config to find libcurl
Some influential environment variables:
CC C compiler command
CFLAGS C compiler flags
LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
nonstandard directory <lib dir>
CPPFLAGS C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have
headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
CPP C preprocessor
CXX C++ compiler command
CXXFLAGS C++ compiler flags
CXXCPP C++ preprocessor
F77 Fortran 77 compiler command
FFLAGS Fortran 77 compiler flags
XSLTCONFIG XSLT configuration program
OGG_PREFIX path to ogg installation
VORBIS_PREFIX
path to vorbis installation
Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to
help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.
Report bugs to <icecast@xiph.org>.

============================
For the life of me I seem to force it to find pthread.h. I can force
it to find the ogg libraries just fine..... I should just have to feed
it the parent directory path.
What am I missing? It's got to be easy.
Sorry to those on the list who are thinking, "Oh Deity, he's messing
around with the system again... :)
Thanks,
Brian
