Thanks Gisle, you guessed right:

             hint=recommended, useposix=true, d_sigaction=define
     ==> usethreads=undef use5005threads=undef useithreads=undef 
usemultiplicity=undef
             useperlio=undef d_sfio=undef uselargefiles=define
             use64bitint=undef use64bitall=undef uselongdouble=undef 
usesocks=undef

SInce that is Apple's build, looks like I'll have to find out 1) if I 
can get the source they used  (maybe from Darwin) and recompile to use 
threads or 2) get the generic Perl 1.5.6 source and struggle with all 
the OSX idiosyncracies in cc and the libs.

<rant> I wish Apple would fix this, OSX is most non-unix unix I have 
ever tried to build unix apps on </rant> I still like it better than 
Windows though ;-)
