Even linking with libc6 does not cause multiple threads to work correctly. You have to link with libpthreads to have threading work correctly (ie, add -lpthreads).
Though I've not digged to find out the reason, it appears that just linking libc6 fills in pthread apis without actually doing anything. A good test to see if threading is working correctly is to test the value returned from the pthread_self() api. When I linked to just libc6, this always returned 0, whereas when I linked to libpthreads, this started returning valid values. It is *very* cool to see process threads working though.
