Howevery, I find no restriction on POSIX in ISO/IEC 9899:2011. So why should -std=c11 have an influence on Pthreads? Am I missing something?

The option means explicit standard C without extensions or additions.
POSIX is atop of the C standard and requires specific definition by the
user if it's required.
