+Whether this defect report also applies to a natively-build GCC from SVN trunk
+has not yet been checked.
+
+[[Thomas_Schwinge|tschwinge]] suspects the problem to be a configuration issue
+of a GCC helper library, whose configuration setup has changed after GCC 4.3.
+
+The need for `-lpthread` is another story. See the Debian glibc patches
+repository for details.
