The toolchain would build glibc twice, once with linuxthreads, and the other with NPTL. By setting this USE flag, you would cause glibc to only build the NPTL version, thus cutting the build-time in half. Whether it's needed or not anymore, I am not certain. It might be left over for people who need an upgrade path from such an old glibc to something newer. -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS ku...@gentoo.org 4096R/D25D95E3 2011-03-28 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
