Undefined reference when using pthread

Created by: njlr

Compiling a small pthread example results in an undefined reference. It seems that Buck is not handling the linker_flags correctly.

Repo for this issue: https://github.com/njlr/buck-pthread-example

Here is the BUCK file:

cxx_binary(
  name = 'main',
  srcs = [
    'main.cpp',
  ],
  linker_flags = [
    '-lpthread',
  ],
)

Here is the error:

$ buck build :main 
buck-out/gen/main#compile-main.cpp.oa5b6a1ba,default/main.cpp.o: In function `main':
main.cpp:(.text+0x98): undefined reference to `pthread_create'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

BUILD FAILED: //:main#binary failed with exit code 1:

Compiling manually works:

c++ main.cpp -o main -lpthread

My setup:

$ buck --version
buck version v2017.05.31.01

$ c++ --version
c++ (Ubuntu 6.3.0-12ubuntu2) 6.3.0 20170406
