</span>Hi. Try to compile with --enable-win32thread for native Windows<br>
threads instead of POSIX. Or try another toolchain (from<br>
<a href="http://files.1f0.de/mingw/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://files.1f0.de/mingw/</a> or <a href="http://komisar.gin.by/mingw/index.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://komisar.gin.by/mingw/index.html</a>)<br>
which have pthreads-w32 for POSIX threads instead of winpthreads<br>
included in mingw-w64 builds. There was problems winpthreads before<br>
and I am dunno if they fixed them (and 4.8.2 is pretty old).<br>
