Revision: 6624 http://sourceforge.net/p/mingw-w64/code/6624 Author: adrien-n Date: 2014-05-09 23:02:26 +0000 (Fri, 09 May 2014) Log Message: ----------- web: reword the "threading model" description as yes/no to C*11 threading. "POSIX threading model" is confusing. It's an implementation detail while the real question is whether C11 and C++11 threading support is available or not. Therefore, just say that. Also add a note about the requirement on winpthreads.
