AFAIK the egcs that comes with SuSE 6.2 has thread support enabled.
Try installing the updates to the gppshare and libgpp packages.
They fix a deadlock problem with C++ and Threads.

ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/a1/gppshare.rpm
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/update/6.2/d1/libgpp.rpm

While we are at it: Why does the egcs and gcc build documentation
state that --enable-thread only affects the Objective C runtime?

Cheers,
