>Description:
privoxy fails to start when run on my macOS machine.

With the log level turned up in the config file, I see the following in the log file:
2022-07-04 14:12:30.705 00102ee0 Error: error compiling /.*\.(gif|jpe?g|png|bmp|ico)($|\?) from /.*\.(gif|jpe?g|png|bmp|ico)($|\?): invalid argument to regex routine
2022-07-04 14:12:30.705 00102ee0 Fatal error: can't load actions file '/opt/pkg/etc/privoxy/default.action': line 624: cannot create URL or TAG pattern from: /.*\.(gif|jpe?g|png|bmp|ico)($|\?)

coming from one of the default patterns in the included default.action file
>How-To-Repeat:
Add "privoxy=YES" to /etc/rc.conf

/etc/rc.d/privoxy start

and privoxy exits immediately with exit code 1.
>Fix:
I found that the problem goes away if I build it without pthreads support. In the Makefile, I commented out the lines referring to pthreads:

#PTHREAD_AUTO_VARS=	yes
#PTHREAD_OPTS+=		require

#.include "../../mk/pthread.buildlink3.mk"
