i386 guest is a comparatively rare case for linux-user (because most people have an i386 box they can run them on). Also I'm hoping to get most of the linux-user guests up to the point where we can just have CONFIG_NPTL be true for all of them -- I have several patches on-list which are trying to head in that direction. thanks -- PMM
