-This requires Linux (2.6+ or systems with NPTL backports) running on the
-x86 or x86-64 architecture, or SunOS (Solaris) on the x86.  Support for
-threading on Darwin (Mac OS X) and FreeBSD on the x86 is experimental.
+Threads are part of the default build on x86[-64] Linux only.
+
+They are also experimentally supported on: x86[-64] Darwin (Mac OS X),
+x86[-64] FreeBSD, and x86 SunOS (Solaris). On these platforms threads
+must be explicitly enabled at build-time, see @file{INSTALL} for
+directions.
