It specifies which threading model should be used by the threading
abstraction in <bits/gthr.h>. This is used by the C++ and objective C
runtime libraries, the STL implementation and the libgcc exception
handling mechanism. Hence you may run into thread safety problems if you
use threads in C++ or Objective C.

I'm not sure if <bits/gthr.h> is intended for general use - I don't
think it's documented in the manual.
