It would be nice if we could add NPTL to 0.9.31 for one.
I plan to move most arches to INTERNAL_SYSCALL and switch over.
Perhaps we can switch ldso to cope with other pagesizes (see mantis bug) and
also switch to GLRO.
etc, etc..

I asked Carmelo to bring the NPTL branch up to date, _not_ to merge it into
trunk right away.

There are other thread libraries which could be added. There were no
size- nor performance numbers posted for the "android threads",
and not mentioning the incompatible license is absolutely unacceptable.
