agreed, but I'm not quite sure if those are really sensible. Is it
really the case that a UML kernel does not run in an NPTL environmen? I
don't think so, AFAIK the UML kernel just isn't able to provide
everything to run NPTL enabled application under its hood. So when
there's a new Gentoo compiled for the UML's root file system, why
bother with recompiling the hosting environment? (Except, of course, if
one wants to use the host as a BINHOST for portage, too. But the guide
doesn't specifically suggest this.)
