There is an issue on Boost.Thread regression test for PGI compiler. See
https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/6354.

     "pgCC" -INLINE:none -Kieee -fpic -fPIC -gopt -Minform=warn -DBOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1 -DBOOST_TEST_NO_AUTO_LINK=1 -DBOOST_THREAD_POSIX -DBOOST_THREAD_USE_DLL=1 -D__need_IOV_MAX -I".." -c -o "/scratch/kbelco/boost/results/boost/bin.v2/libs/thread/test/test_barrier.test/pgi-11.9/debug/threading-multi/test_barrier.o" "../libs/thread/test/test_barrier.cpp"

"../boost/config/requires_threads.hpp", line 86: catastrophic error: #error
           directive: "Compiler threading support is not turned on. Please

   # error "Compiler threading support is not turned on. Please consult your compiler's documentation for the appropriate options to use"

boost/config/compiler/pgi.hpp defines BOOST_HAS_PTHREADS but not
BOOST_HAS_THREADS, resulting in failure in the requires_threads.hpp header.

It seems that adding

#define BOOST_HAS_THREADS

inboost/config/compiler/pgi.hpp solves the issue.

John, what do you think?

Could I add it?

Best,
Vicente
