I have recently built a new Gentoo 2005.0 box with a stage3 tarball. I set the NPTL flag (among others) and rebuilt the entire system. It does not appear that NPTL is sticking and I am not at all sure why; instead it has pulled in the linuxthreads package. Can anybody help out here? See

You can also set the nptlonly flag for glibc, which will avoid using linuxthreads at all (forces everything to use nptl). If you look at the OP's message, it appeared that he did have the nptlonly flag set... There is the message about glibc/gcc masking off some use flags for stability

Hi, What do you think. Will I get better performance if I turn on NPTL on a AMD 1800+ Athlon XP 512MB RAM. I use this machine for desktop purposes. KDE, XMMS, Firefox, Tvtime, Kdevelop, Wesnoth, K3B, some audio- video recording and so on. Advantages? Disadvantages? TIA. Cheers, Tamas Sarga

I have one more question. What is the end-user difference between NPTL and NPTL-only. I know, that later won't compile linuxthreads, but what does it mean? Does all in-portage applications support NPTL, or some apps will fail to compile, or will be slower cause of the miss of linuxthreads, or
