This is a GPL requirement. Some pthread support already exists in the Cygwin runtime. More needs to be added and we're waiting for you to add what is missing and work out the bugs. Whether or not it is feasible to add pthread support to gcc is unknown to me. Earnie. P.S.: For your convenience, I've redirected you request back to the list and reset your replies there.
