You can use gdb_compile_pthreads and put "c++" in the options. However, I like your approach. Actually I wish most of the gdb_compile_* procs would go away and be replaced by a variant of this idea.

The intro comment to build_executable_from_specs needs an update to note that with_pthreads is handled locally.
