[Pvfs2-developers] Pre bmi_mx patch

[Murali Vilayannur]

Hi Scott,
I see that -lpthread is tacked onto  LIBS regardless of whether we
want threading or not. IIRC atleast on the client-side we would want
to be able to build without threads although i am not sure if that is
true anymore...
looks great otherwise.
We do need to add the bmi_mx directory so that configure can generate
the module.mk file..
It would be good to have pvfs2-genconfig generate a default config
file which is correct so that people can subsequently edit it if they
wish to customize it or something.. does not matter at this point!
thanks,
Murali
