This is unlikely to be a binutils related problem (ie related to the 
linker).  It is more likely to be a NPTL problem, so you are better off 
asking on the glibc or kernel mailing lists.

Binutils version 2.16 was released a while ago and the sources in the 
mainline of the binutils CVS repository are even better, so you might 
like to try one of these.
