[Pvfs2-developers] threaded client

[Sam Lang]

Hi all,

I just committed some changes to the Makefile.in so that libpvfs2- 
threaded.a gets built by default.  A pvfs2-client-core-threaded  
binary now gets built (linked to the libpvfs2-threaded.a).  Also, I  
added a -threaded option to pvfs2-client, which starts the threaded  
binary instead of the single thread one.

The only drawback I see to this is that the build takes longer now,  
because all of the source files have to compile to *-threaded.o  
versions as well.  The only big difference between them is the - 
D__PVFS2_JOB_THREADED__.  Since that preprocessor directive is only  
used in a few source files, we end up doing a lot of unnecessary  
building.  I'm not sure there's a good way around this though.
