Could you try adding the following overload of the thread constructor
to boost/thread/pthread/thread.hpp

        template <class T,class R,class P1,class A1>
            thread(R (T::*f)(P1),A1 a1):
            thread_info(make_thread_info(boost::bind<void>(boost::mem_fn(f),a1)))
        {
            start_thread();
        }

If that makes the problem go away, I'll commit the change.
