This means that you try to build with a non-ithread-enabled perl.  You
enable ithread by passing the -Dusethreads option to 'Configure' when
you build perl.  If you simply use ActivePerl you get this by default
and you don't need to compile yourself.

You should also be able to build with a non-thread enabled perl but
then you need to add something like -DNO_PERL_LOCK to the compiler
invocation line.  This will not give you a pyperl suitable for running
zoperl though.
