That's not the point.  The point is stuff that isn't necessarily visible
in the source code --- such as what method it uses to get at "errno",
whether it's linked to thread-safe versions of malloc and other libc
routines, etc.

If the OS supplies both libc and libc_r, it is unlikely to be a good
idea to link a threaded libpq with libc, or a non-threaded libpq with
libc_r.
