to see if this is a Thread issue.

Just want to chime in and say that I see the same compiler errors compiling my application with pgCC. I hope this gets resolved, I'd like to use pgCC, but for now have to use GNU C++ due to this issue.

Thanks. reddell at uw.edu

boost/config/compiler/pgi.hpp defines BOOST_HAS_PTHREADS but not BOOST_HAS_THREADS, resulting in failure in the requires_threads.hpp header mentioned in the report.

As far as I can tell, there's no particular compiler flag needed to enable threading in current PGI versions. Simply hacking in a

#define BOOST_HAS_THREADS

in the pgi.hpp header seems to have done the trick for threading on my tested configuration (11.8).

It also works with pgi 11.9
