Very strange, especially since the definitions you gave in comment 9 don't seem to do anything complicated. Does this work? #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <pthread.h> struct M { pthread_mutex_t m; M() noexcept { pthread_mutex_t tmp = PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER; m = tmp; } }; int main() { M m; int e = pthread_mutex_lock(&m.m); if (e) printf("%d : %s\n", e, strerror(e)); return e; } If that works, we might be able to fix it using fixincludes (similar to PR 50982 comment 32) Otherwise I suppose we must not define __GTHREAD_MUTEX_INIT on Tru64, causing std::mutex to use the init function instead.
