------- Comment #4 from Ralf dot Wildenhues at gmx dot de 2005-12-18 00:53 ------- For the casual reader of the documentation, the precedence of this statement over | `-pthread' | Adds support for multithreading with the "pthreads" library. This | option sets flags for both the preprocessor and linker.
or even the fact that the latter will add a library, are not obvious. It would be nice if the documentation could be more definite on both of these points. BTW, I believe libtool does the -nostdlib stuff because, at least in the past, not using it could cause situations where later libstdc++ would not be found automatically. I think at least for dlopen'ed modules depending on C++ libraries this is still the case (completely untested). Cheers, Ralf -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25460
