+ # The linuxthreads libpthread ABI froze at GLIBC_2.3.2 and lacks
+ # numerous additions that NPTL's libpthread has. We can't go adding
+ # any new symbols here unless we support all the new symbols in NPTL,
+ # and we don't want to do that. Linuxthreads is only alive for
+ # compatibility with old binaries using old interfaces.
