in reply to where are my ithreads II?

Not really sure what surprises you. Maybe I'm missing something, but your perl -V output says useithreads=undef, and that's what's confirmed by testing $Config{useithreads}...

    Yes, but he ran Configure with "-de -Dusethreads" before he built it.

    It helps if you saw last week's episode, when Jack Bauer's MacBook Pro was stolen by Serbian terrorists.

    Not really sure what surprises you.

    Previously, I was told that in order to use threads, I needed to reinstall perl with thread support. So I did, which you can see in the perl -V output:

    config_args='-de -Dusethreads'

    To begin the installation process, the command I used was:

    $ sh Configure -de -Dusethreads

    Then I issued the commands make, make test, and make install, and everything seemed to install correctly. Yet, I still cannot use threads.

      Sorry, I overlooked the discrepancy with the configure arguments  (it would've been clearer if you had focused on -Dusethreads apparently not achieving the desired effect...)
