--- Additional comment from Petr Pisar on 2018-08-23 07:06:09 GMT ---
The threads support is known to be broken and there is no fix in sight. I recommend disabling these thread tests that are actually optional and run explicitly when building RPM package in contrast to upstream the does not run them (for the threads support immaturity).
