Package: libc0.1
Version: 2.13-32
Tags: patch
Currently, perl relies on getconf to figure out whether threads have their
own PID or not. They assume that this is true for linuxthreads but not for
NPTL:
$ getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
linuxthreads-0.10
$ getconf GNU_LIBPTHREAD_VERSION
NPTL 2.11.3
Since this behaviour was changed in patched versions of linuxthreads, I think
it'd be useful if they exposed a different version number so that users like
perl can check for it.
Patch attached.
