# Hey you!! Yes, YOU! Do not add new symbols here!
# The linuxthreads libpthread ABI froze at GLIBC_2.3.2 and lacks
# numerous additions that NPTL's libpthread has. We can't go adding
# any new symbols here unless we support all the new symbols in NPTL,
# and we don't want to do that. Linuxthreads is only alive for
# compatibility with old binaries using old interfaces.
