Looks like it worked, though loudly.

What does

	$ gcc -v
	$ echo '
#		include <pthread.h>

		int main(void)
		{
			pthread_mutex_t test_mutex;
			int retcode = 0;
			retcode |= pthread_mutex_init(&test_mutex,(void *)0);
			retcode |= pthread_mutex_lock(&test_mutex);
			retcode |= pthread_mutex_unlock(&test_mutex);
			return retcode;
		}

	' >pthreadtest.c
	$ gcc -pthread pthreadtest.c
	$ echo $?
	$ ./a.out
	$ echo $?

say?
