I am trying to compile this simple program with android-ndk-r8b:
jni/hello_jni.cpp

#include <iostream>
#include <thread>

void hello()
{
    std::cout << "Hi i'm a thread!!!" << std::endl;
}

int main()
{
    std::thread th(hello);
    th.join();
    return 0;
}

jni/Application.mk

APP_OPTIM := release
APP_MODULES := hello_thread
APP_STL := gnustl_static

jni/Android.mk

LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_CPPFLAGS   += -std=c++0x -frtti

LOCAL_MODULE     := hello_thread
LOCAL_LDLIBS     := -L$(SYSROOT)/usr/lib -pthread
LOCAL_SRC_FILES  := hello_thread.cpp

include $(BUILD_EXECUTABLE)

ndk-build returns me an error arguin that 'thread' is not a member of 'std'. I issued ndk-build -n to get the compilation command and issued it alone in my shell:

I read a lot of threads/questions about POSIX threads and C++ threads, but still cannot find my answer. My arm-linux-androideabi/include/c++/4.6/thread file defines class thread in std only:

#if defined(_GLIBCXX_HAS_GTHREADS) && defined(_GLIBCXX_USE_C99_STDINT_TR1)

They don't seem to be defined in my sdk (c++config.h). But how can I possibly turn them on safely? Do i need to compile my own toolchain to use (non-p)threads? My host computer is :
