[Bug c++/15391] New: -pthread not implicitly generating -lpthread when linking shared object

[John dot Bossom at cognos dot com]

Summary:
    On System A, gcc is NOT implicitly generating a reference to -lpthread
    when specifying -pthread when building a shared library.

    On System B, gcc DOES implicitly generate a reference to -lpthread
    when specifying -pthread when building a shared library.

Expected Results:
    Specifying -pthread should generate link to -lpthread implicitly on
    System A.

Details:
    The following two blocks of output were generated using
	"g++ -v -shared -pthread -o crap crap.cpp"

    The first block was generated on System A:
	IBM pSeries running Red Hat Enterprise Server 3.0 AS.

    The second block was generated on System B:
	HP Proliant ML 350 (i386) running Red Hat Enterprise Server 3.0 WS

Both are using the same version of gcc (i.e. that which is installed by
default with RHES 3.0, namely gcc 3.2.3.

[Bug c++/15391] -pthread not implicitly generating -lpthread when linking shared object

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

------- Additional Comments From pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org  2004-05-12 11:54 -------
Fixed in 3.3 by <http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2002-12/msg00526.html>, Next time report this 
to you distro provider as they might have backported the patch already (I think redhat has).
