We didn't use to require threads on Linux/OS X.  There was conditional code at the top of SSHCore.pm (if you look at the history) that checked for Windows and then did a "require" inside of the conditional.  This is how it should be.  Not only is it not needed under Linux/OS X, but we don't need to be pulling in any more modules than necessary due to Perl's already large footprint.

The perl install that ships with Mandriva is built without threads
support.  As a result, I am no longer able to perform any backups due to
"use" failures.

It appears that it isn't trivial to install perl with threads support.
(I would have to compile it myself)

Because we use threads to solve a windows issue can we only use threads
on windows?
