My answer... not until whatever linuxthreads-enabled glibc is no longer |
| 10 |
maintainable. We already lock the version to a specific maximum glibc |
| 11 |
in the no-nptl profiles. I say once that glibc version is no longer |
| 12 |
maintainable, then we move to i486 and drop the no-nptl stuff. |

Are there still issues with a 2.6 headers set and a 2.4 kernel? |

If so, we'll need to drop 2.4 kernel support at the same time on the |
| 17 |
affected arches. |
