They all support -l${library} don't they? Otherwise the current
"require  libx264 x264.h x264_encoder_encode -lx264 -lm" wouldn't
work. Therefore they all support -lpthread, or whatever pkg-config
throws.

No. I have a Fedora system in my PC, and I can use gcc or clang. Same
system, different compiler.
