I'd like to apply the following small patch as a start on at least deprecating the hell out of LINUXTHREADS_OLD. All it does is stop it showing up in menuconfig, and make the symbol default to n.
We really do need to get down to one pthreads implementation before we start adding nptl-threads, and getting the new we have a better chance of maintaining actually widely tested is an important part of that. Comments? Rob
