[mod_python] Dupe: Undefined symbol "PyEval_AcquireLock"

My experience with FreeBSD systems is that threading wasn't builtin to
Python by default. To see if threading is builtin, from the command
line run Python and then do:

   import threading

If it fails, probably indicates Python wasn't built with threading
support in the first place. If this is the case, you will need to
rebuild Python with threading enabled. Note that on FreeBSD I believe
the POSIX thread library functions are in -lc_r, ie., reentrant
version of standard C library. Command line for configure probably
something like:

   LIBS=-lc_r ./configure --with-threads
