For some reason I thought the
preferred strategy was to build a single app that
can run well under either LinuxThreads or NPTL,
and Jakub's code fragment was meant to let you
enable LinuxThreads workarounds at runtime.

What are the technical pros and cons of this approach
vs. the one Wan-Teh is considering (namely, building
separate apps for LinuxThreads and NPTL)?
