Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by threads.

I'm not sure, but when I attempted to remove it configure died a
horrible death. Seems to of got stuck in a circular dependency thing.
Output was about 25 MBs before sh.exe did a sigsegv.
Actually removing most things in the list has the same effect here.
I have now tested on Linux, basically the same result.

We don't have poll so the build was dieing with unresolved symbol _poll
in
ffserver.
I hadn't looked into it to much but now I found an errant sys/poll.h
in the C_INCLUDE_PATH. ffserver now builds and runs. Haven't tested 
much.
New patch enclosed
