Apparently it did need -lpthread on my FC3 box. I got a link error like this:

There's another issue here too, somehow the GC build system isn't putting a DT_NEEDED entry for libdl in the generated library:

mike@...646... lib $ cat a.c extern void *GC_malloc();

int main() { void *p = GC_malloc(); }

mike@...646... lib $ gcc -o a -L. -lgc a.c ./libgc.so: undefined reference to `dlopen' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

mike@...646... lib $ objdump -x libgc.so|grep NEEDED NEEDED libpthread.so.0 NEEDED libgcc_s.so.1 NEEDED libc.so.6

I guess this is a GC bug, though quite how they managed to get this situation is beyond me ... libpng has the same problem :(
