If you havenot solved this yet, check the program source for tst-mutex8. It looks like this is testing the mutex locks which are required for pthreads to work successfully without collisions in data space. You may also need an additional library for the mutex stuff, and there were some changes I believe when ANSII redid some of the specs about mid 2006 to handle some exceptions better to help prevent race conditions. It may be that the code in this example predates those changes and is calling something that has been deprecated or removed.
