I have copyright assignment set up, and commit access.

I've attached a new patch with the following changes: 1) I reverted python-config.py and used a different method to test for threads ("python -m threading"); 2) -lmcheck is not enabled by default when Python is available with reads; and 3) running configure with --enable-lmcheck when Python is available with threads now leads to a warning, rather than disabling -lmcheck.

Thanks,
