While I agree with all of this, adding -lpthread to the link line as
well as -pthread should not cause the resulting application to crash.

I see I never got to that in my original mail, sorry :(. Even if we
consistently use -pthread for compiling and linking with gcc, we
sometimes end up with a -lpthread on the link line (often because
libtool has it in some .la files dependency_libs, sometimes due to
pkgconfig), and when that happens the resulting application crashes at
launch.
