None, as long as the Emacs build notices that we're using threads.

Indeed. If you built with Gtk you'll use threads, and IIRC the same
holds for dbus and a few other libraries commonly linked with Emacs.

Actually, we do, but AFAIK we don't need to know about each and every
thread, we just need to know that threading is used (IIRC, the issues we
need to handle have to do with signal delivery, making sure we run them
in the main Emacs/Elisp thread).
