It isn't just ignored.  If ACE's configure script doesn't detect
enough thread features (functions, types, etc) to support threads without
modifying the ACE source then it will disable thread support.  ACE's
configure script can detect POSIX threads drafts 4, 6, 7 and the final
standard, in addition to UI (Solaris) threads.  Do any of the thread
libraries you mention support any of these drafts/standards.
