#1780: Boost 1.35.0 on linux missing thread_start and get_current_thread_state

     Type:  Bugs          |      Status:  new     
Milestone:  Boost 1.36.0  |   Component:  thread  
  Version:  Boost 1.35.0  |    Severity:  Problem 
 Keywords:                |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 I built boost-1.35.0 on a system running glibc-2.7 and linux-2.6.25-rc7
 with "./configure --prefix=/usr && make && make install".  The install
 succeeded,
 but the install process took a long time (although the install process
 took a long time, perhaps calling a very slow install script for each
 file).

 Then I attempted to build gnash-0.8.2, which compiled, but failed to link:

 ../server/.libs/libgnashserver.so: undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::start_thread()'
 ../server/.libs/libgnashserver.so: undefined reference to
 `boost::detail::get_current_thread_data()'

 My guess is that the boost build process somehow is not compiling in
 libs/thread/src/pthread/thread.cpp.

 The boost build process is sufficiently different from most of the other
 software that I use that it would take a long time for me to try to trace
 the problem further.  Also, I apologize for not having a version of
 subversion built with http: URL support.  (I tend to allocate more of time
 time to GPL compatible software.)  However, I figure that it is still
 probably better to inform you of this problem rather than not disclose it.
