Hi Jayaram, > Does it mean - gcc itself cannot use pthreads in the 3.2 version, so gcc > itself is a single-threaded program OR > - gcc cannot correctly build code which uses pthreads ? It means GCC cannot correctly build code which uses pthreads. Certain critical functions in the C/C++ standard library may not be re-entrant. For example, perhaps the malloc and free functions are not thread-savvy -- that would be bad. I recommend using GCC 4.0.2. Note: in GCC 3.4, the option is --enable-threads=posix (no longer --enable-threads=pthreads). HTH, --Eljay
