Because it was an arbitrary choice, it was my use of the Boost libraries. With 1.34.0 I wanted to give the right space to the needs of single-threaded users, which usually do not expect to do anything special to have their binaries not linked to libpthread. Since the default should have been the opposite, the -st variants, I decided that there would not have been any default at all.
