+This indicates that one of the library SimGrid depends on (libpthread
+here) was missing on the linking command line. Dependencies of
+libsimgrid are expressed directly in the dynamic library, so it's
+quite impossible that you see this message when doing dynamic linking. 
+
+If you compile your code statically (and if you use a pthread version
+of SimGrid -- see \ref faq_more_processes), you must absolutely
+specify <tt>-lpthread</tt> on the linker command line. As usual, this should
+come after <tt>-lsimgrid</tt> on this command line.
