[PD] Small work offer: Help to compile an external in windows

[Jonathan Wilkes]

Flext documentation implies that the vanilla source includes a pthreads.h file which
hasn't been true for some time.

another rabbit hole and install this:

http://www.mingw.org/wiki/pthreads_library

Thanks,
-Jonathan
