1. perl: Enable threading on darwin …

   Perl on darwin (and any other sane platform) has a pretty good threading
   support, enable it.
   
   As it turns out, we were building non-multithreaded perl on all systems,
   since glibc was not part of the stdenv anymore:
   
       nix-repl> pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {}
   
       nix-repl> pkgs.stdenv ? glibc
       false
   
   meaning that the comments were incorrect. Thus, clear up the confusion
   and remove the misleading comments, while enabling multithreading by
   default. The builds will fail on unsupported platforms, and in this case
   the only place is the bootstrap, where we already force
   non-multithreaded perl.
   
   As a consequence of the above, this change will cause the full rebuild
   of stdenv on all platforms, including linux.
