It could be coming from another library you are using.  For example,
some libtool library (.la file) might contain a line like
 
  inherited_linker_flags='-threads'

which will cause libtool to add the flag when you use that library
with libtool.

Perhaps some library was built using a different compiler which uses
different options and these got embedded into the installed library.

It's probably just a matter of identifying the problematic library and
then correcting it on your system.

Libtool should work with non-GNU compilers.

Hope that helps,
