Well, stderr and stdout seems to mixed up pretty much when using
./configure ... >out 2>&1. So all I can see is that USE_POSIX_THREADS is
being set. [indented code is from threadlib.m4]
if test "$gl_use_threads" = yes || test "$gl_use_threads" = posix; then
+ test -n yes
+ gl_threads_api=posix
AC_CHECK_HEADER([pthread.h],
[gl_have_pthread_h=yes], [gl_have_pthread_h=no])
+ gl_have_pthread=yes
if test "$gl_have_pthread_h" = yes; then
if test -n "$gl_have_pthread"; then
gl_threads_api=posix
AC_DEFINE([USE_POSIX_THREADS], [1],
+ test -n yes
+ gl_threads_api=posix
+ printf '%s\n' '#define USE_POSIX_THREADS 1'
Little bit further above in the configure output:
+ gl_have_pthread=yes
+ LIBTHREAD=-pthread
+ LTLIBTHREAD=-pthread
+ LIBMULTITHREAD=-pthread
+ LTLIBMULTITHREAD=-pthread
+ rm -f core conftest.err conftest.o conftest.exe conftest.c
+ LIBS=
+ test -n yes
+ break
+ test -n yes
+ test -z -pthread
+ test -z yes
+ test -n yes
+ gl_threads_api=posix
+ printf '%s\n' '#define USE_POSIX_THREADS 1'
+ test -n -pthread
+ case "$gl_cv_have_weak" in
The output is pretty large. If interested, I'll send it to you via PM.

As Eric says, pthread_sigmask is defined to 0 in
/usr/share/mingw-w64/include/pthread_signal.h:
/* Windows has rudimentary signals support. */
#define pthread_sigmask(H, S1, S2) 0
