6 I could find 17 bugs with 'nptl' in the summary. Most of them are invalid;
7 mostly compile errors with old package versions that have since been fixed
8 upstream. #21132 looks like the only serious one, and that only affects
9 proprietary binary software. I've been running nptl for ages (on x86) and
10 have no problems with the other packages mentioned (openoffice, mysql, wine,
11 glibc).
