System: AIX laursf8 3 4 005607BA4C00

>Description:
The -mthreads option isn't accepted by gcc anymore (i.e. it was for
release 2.95.3) although it's still documented in the texinfo file.
>How-To-Repeat:
$ cat test.c
#include <pthread.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
pthread_exit(NULL);
return 0;
}
$ make
gcc -mthreads -c -o test.o test.c
cc1: Invalid option `threads'
make: *** [test.o] Error 1
>Fix:
Maybe the documentation should replace -mthreads by -pthread ?
