I would like both single and multi-threaded to be built for all
libraries by default. But at minimum, would like an easy way to find
out which libraries are affected my multi-threading. These are:
signals
filesystem
thread (obviously)
The only library I've used that isn't is
date_time
Not sure on regex, but I think its makefiles build all the possible
versions so it isn't so much of an issue.
