Just a quick update. I am able to correctly build and test ruby1.9 in my nptl enabled chroot. Previously ruby1.9 was not building (tests were failing) on hppa because glibc was based on linuxthreads. The debian-glibc team has the latest patches for the hppa nptl transition, and I am working with them to enable the transition ASAP.
