You don't need --enable-pthreads for this, since the configure script will
check for it by default. This, because the threaded resolver is in the default
build.

configure.ac is the source code (configure is the generated one). I presume
you talk about this line?

https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/master/configure.ac#L3502

It's how its done with lots of compilers (gcc, clang, icc etc), but apparently
not with yours. But if you read the code just before, you'll see that the
script attempts to detect HPUX and *not* set -pthread as an option when
running there.

Are you saying that hpux detection fails? Or what else is happening there?
