There is still the issue of PhysFS 2.0.x not building on *BSD OS's
and other OS's with the POSIX threads mutex functions being in the
pthreads library. PhysFS 1 had a hardcoded list of OS's in the autoconf
script but CMake should be checking for the existence of mutexes
within the pthreads lib and linking if present.
