+libpthread-stubs is a library that provides weak aliases for pthread
+functions not provided in libc or otherwise available by default.
+Libraries like libxcb rely on pthread stubs to use pthreads optionally,
+becoming thread-safe when linked to libpthread, while avoiding any
+performance hit when running single-threaded.
