Bob,
The threads(3THR) manual page for Solaris specifies:
POSIX
cc -mt [ flag... ] file...- lpthread [ -lposix4 library... ]
Solaris
cc - mt [ flag... ] file...[ library... ]
But, if you read closely, you will see that the page refers to 'cc' and
not 'gcc' :-(, and if you read the specs files of 'gcc', you will
discover that gcc refuses the '-mt' flag but accepts '-pthreads' flag
when compiling for POSIX threads, and '-threads' one when compiling for
SOLARIS threads, without having to add '-lpthread' (which is much
simpler IMHO).
The problem now with ltmain.sh, is that it recognizes '-pthreads' and
'-mt' flags (and plenty other ones) , but not '-threads' one (probably
because nobody uses SOLARIS threads with libtool and gcc).
Hope this clarifies my request,
Eric

I try to use libtool with a SOLARIS multithreaded library using
SOLARIS threads (not PTRHEADS) and gcc. It occurs that the option to
use with gcc '-threads' is not taken into account by ltmain.sh,
whereas '-mt' (the one to be used with Sun CC) is. I read in the
latest version (1.5.22) that the problem is still present.
I suggest that you read the threads(3THR) manual page for Solaris. It
will become clear within the first paragraph. I promise!
