Just for clarification, the patches that we propose don't regress
anything (at least from what we tested, they shouldn't). What I was
trying to say is that some functions are currently only provided by NPTL
(clock_nanosleep, for example is only implemented in NPTL and lacking in
lt.old), so it would be great to get support for NPTL for Xtensa into
uClibc.
Thanks,
