scan-build ./configure fails looking for pthread support: "_REENTRANT must be defined"

[ghenry]

Hi all,

I'm using pthreads and my scan-build action has failed:

https://github.com/SentryPeer/SentryPeer/runs/5034401493?check_suite_focus=true

I see this:

cat clang_output_*
conftest.c:59:26: error: "_REENTRANT must be defined"
#                        error "_REENTRANT must be defined"
                         ^

and

Version:
clang-analyzer-13.0.0-3.fc35.noarch

My autotools builds fine without scan-build as per:

https://github.com/SentryPeer/SentryPeer/actions/runs/1783127976

Any tips here? Not sure if this is a bug nor where to ask.

Thanks for reading,
Gavin.

The same happens when doing scan-build ./configure on libsodium and jq projects:

https://github.com/jedisct1/libsodium
https://github.com/stedolan/jq

so not just my project. They both use AX_PTHREAD macro too, but without scan-build, all is well.
