State-Changed-When: Thu Jun 21 14:33:59 2001
State-Changed-Why:
    This is known but not well-documented behavior.
    On the mainline in gcc/doc/install.texi, the issue is
    now clarified:
    
      In general, the best (and, in many cases, the only known) threading
      model available will be configured for use.  Beware that on some
      systems, gcc has not been taught what threading models are generally
      available for the system.  In this case, @option{--enable-threads} is an
      alias for @option{--enable-threads=single}.
    
    It would be better to abort the early configuration with
    an error in this case than to silently drop a user-provided
    switch, but the patches to make that so have not been
    fully submitted or applied yet.
