It appears that Mingw gcc included in RTools is missing a dependent
library. If I compile a program with '-lgomp' switch (for OpenMP
support), I get a errors about undefined references to functions like
'_imp__pthread_mutex_destroy'. Adding the '-static' switch, I get the
following error:
c:/rtools/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/4.5.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe:
cannot find -lpthread
Sure enough, there is neither libpthread.a nor libpthread.dll under
RTools' installation directory. I think these library are standard in
Cygwin. Is there any chance to include them in RTools, too?
