 Dear all,

 I am trying to link boost thread 1.47 using Mingw version 4.6.1.
 I already applied the modification proposed in #4614; that is I added the
 or condition for defined(MINGW32) on line 40 of the file config.hpp. The
 other suggestion in #4258 cannot be applied due to the fact that the file
 tss_pe.cpp seems not to exist anymore.
 After the modification I recompiled all the library using gcc as --toolset
 option.

 In particular I get the following linking-time errors.

 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x1833): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::~thread()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x1d07): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::hardware_concurrency()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x20f4): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::start_thread()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x23a2): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::start_thread()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x250b): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::join()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x26fb): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::~thread()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x34b8): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::~thread()'
 Surface.o:Surface.cpp:(.text+0x35c3): undefined reference to
 `boost::thread::~thread()'

 If I use the unmodified boost library I get the same errors.
 Additionally I already recompiled bjam and I both used b2 and the
 recompiled bjam with no success. In any case the boost library is
 succesfully built and I get linking errors only when linking from my
 sources.
 The same sources and makefile work well on Linux; they work also in Window
 using Visual Studio and boost threads again in version 1.47.

 Any suggestion?
 Thanks
