Perhaps this serves to see if the port will build and run fine on 5.x. I contacted the software author asking for clarification on the threads issue and he thus replied: "Note that they were not patching HMMER per se here [talking about the patch-configure in 2.2.g], but a copy of the ACX_PTHREAD macro from the autoconf macro archive, which I include in my configure.ac. (so they oughtto've notified the ACX_PTHREAD author?) HMMER's relying on autoconf to get it the pthreads configuration right on all platforms. If any more problems arise here, check against the latest version of ACX_PTHREAD in the archive; if I need to update my copy of the macro in HMMER, let me know. That is, it would be best *not* to patch HMMER's copy of ACX_PTHREAD; better to patch ACX_PTHREAD itself, in the autoconf macro archive, then update HMMER's copy."
