Subject: [Bug c/20705] New: -pthread should enable all options required to use pthreads on all platforms
X-Bugzilla-Reason: CC

List-Id: <gcc-bugs.sourceware.org>

The lack of a portable option to enable pthreads is a significant annoyance. It
is mentioned in bug 8888, and bug 18788 is also relevant, but those are separate
bugs. See also the discussion in
<http://groups.google.co.uk/groups?threadm=8764z82jd8.fsf%40qrnik.zagroda>.

Workaround: use autoconf with
<http://ac-archive.sourceforge.net/Installed_Packages/acx_pthread.html>. This is
not suitable for all projects.
