Dynamic linking is what you *should* do, but static linking with $ g++ -static threads_static.c -o threads_static -pthread should have also worked (as in "produced correctly working but extremely non-portable executable"). > i am starting to suspect that i have a big problem with > glibc/pthreads/stdlibc++ configuration... I just tried 'g++ -static -pthread ...' on MDK-10, and came back with: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lstdc++ If that's what you got, you need to install archive version of libstdc++ (this has nothing to do with pthreads -- you wouldn't be able to link any C++ program with -static if you don't have libstdc++.a).
