Dan,

I'm not sure why this is happening to you. CPLCreateThread() should be
defined in cpl_multiproc.cpp.  If pthreads or win32 style stuff isn't
available it should fallback to a dummy implementation.

If you can't easily identify what is going wrong in cpl_multiproc.cpp, you
can just comment out the call in gdal/alg/gdalwarpoperation.cpp.  Multi
threading is not normally used.

PS. 1.1.9 is pretty ancient.  It's alot more fun answering questions about
current software.

Best regards,
