I tried using the configure script and then running make to execute the makefile - shouldn't the configure script have detected threading availability in the compiler?
It's turning off threading support because it thinks your libstdc++ is built single threaded: however I have a suspicion this is may be due to a bug I fixed a while back - basically it means that if you configure gcc with --enable-threads=posix rather than --enable-threads=default then our config doesn't correctly detect that case (in case you're thinking "but they're the same thing!", they're not at least as far as the macros set by libstdc++ are concerned).
Anyway can you try replacing boost/config/stdlib/libstdcpp3.hpp with the current cvs version (attached) and see if that fixes things?
[snip attachment] Hi, I tried your suggestion and got this error message: ...failed gcc-C++-action bin/boost/libs/thread/build/libboost_thread.a/gcc/release/threading-multi/tss.o... gcc-C++-action bin/boost/libs/thread/build/libboost_thread.a/gcc/release/threading-multi/xtime.o In file included from /home/quantum/boost_1_33_1/boost/thread/detail/config.hpp:18, from /home/quantum/boost_1_33_1/libs/thread/src/xtime.cpp:12: /home/quantum/boost_1_33_1/boost/config/requires_threads.hpp:47:5: #error "Compiler threading support is not turned on.

I've already set the LIBS variable to "-lpthread".
