This is the smallest example to reproduce the issue:
program ReproduceBug;
{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
uses
{$ifdef unix}cthreads;{$endif}
begin
writeln('using cthreads seems to be the root cause of this bug.');
end.
The code complies if the cthreads unit isn't included.
I played a bit with the installed packages, libc6-dev:i386 is the
troublemaker. Probably some environmental variables are pointing to a
wring directory.
