linking with boost.threads on solaris 8 with gcc 3.0.3

gcc version: 3.0.3 - thread model: posix
ld version: GNU ld 2.11.2 (with BFD 2.11.2)
boost: 1.27.0

I've applied the unclosed extern "C" fix to once.cpp,
removed the unsupported -pthread option from gcc-tools.jam,
and built the thread library using jam with no errors.

Has anyone compiled anything using this environment that
uses boost.threads?

A v.simple (completely pointless) test fails for me:

#include <exception>
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/thread/mutex.hpp>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  try
  {
    boost::mutex m;
    boost::mutex::scoped_lock l(m);
  }
  catch(std::exception const& e)
  {
    std::cerr << "error: " << e.what() << "\n";
    return 1;
  }
}

g++ -c -g -I/home/peakalld/boost_1_27_0 main.cpp

Any thoughts appreciated.
