A general thing - without this then: Your std lib is not thread safe. Your C lib is not thread safe. g++ will not emit thread safe exception handling code. Thus while for C programs enabling thread support is just a question of linking to the right libraries, for C++ you also need to ensure that the compiler "knows" that you want thread safe code.
