Hi,

The first thing I noticed about a month ago, is that there are some duplicate menu items showing up in the "expert & expanded options" section. "Selecting C library" shows up twice. Also the GlibC sub menu under that appears twice. It is a minor cosmetic annoyance, the configuration still seems to generate OK.

The second thing is concerning a default setting for the "generic->minimal" target. I am testing out a "generic-> minimal" build using the Mips64 generic arch , because I am seeing major weirdness on my mips64 builds using my custom built target, and I want to see if any kind of glibc based build can be done on the mips64 trunk, so I figure that the generic->minimal should be the best bet to succeed.

Anyway, when I set up the configuration, but did not specifically go into the "Selecting C library" section and specify TLS/NPTL, it defaults these to "No", which causes glibc stage0 to fail because it's looking for the old linuxthreads, which is not there:

checking build system type... i686-nocross-linux-gnu
checking host system type... mips64-t2-linux-gnu
configure: error: add-on directory "linuxthreads" does not exist
Due to previous errors, no 0-glibc.log file!
(Try enabling xtrace in the config to track an error inside the build system.)
--- BUILD ERROR ---

If an Architecture supports NPTL (I think all of them do at this point) then NPTL should default to "On"

Thanks

Jan
