Java apps benefit a lot from ntpl. Loki's Sim City 3000 Unlimited, for example, doesn't work with nptl. Some other binary apps too, perhaps. nptlonly makes the ebuild not build a non-nptl libc, which means you can't fall back on linux threads like so: LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.5 foo -- [Name ] :: [Matan I.
