Maybe we are just having different notions of "supported".  I think people can
already set CC and CFLAGS themselves to get all-threaded builds.  And that is
supported, I think, because we allow users to set CC and CFLAGS.  If we write
"cc_r is not supported", then we might shut out users where we don't have to.
As I said, one user already reported to have used it.
