egcs on AIX & multithreading

[Andrey Slepuhin]

Hi,
I'm using gcc on AIX, and what I really need is to build multithreaded
applications. Native compiler (C Set++ 3.1.4), if invoked as xlC_r
(instead of xlC) uses thread-safe versions of crt0.o and libraries.
Neither gcc-2.7.2 nor current snapshots of egcs have not such features.
With "plain" C it is not difficult to make appropriate linkage manually,
but with C++ here is a problem. Is it possible to make appropriate
compiler switch in future versions, or I must patch sources to force
gcc to use thread-safe libraries?
