Re: glibc2.3.2, linux 2.4.18, and TLS
Mike,
You nailed it... there are references to the $usetls variable in a number
of configure scripts in various subdirectories. I'm afraid it's been
years since I've built anything using configure, and I seem to have
forgotten most of the little I used to know about it. Thanks for
clarifying this.

perhaps you arent looking in all the possible files. the top level
configure
will automatically source/run a lot of configure file fragments in the
subdirs. like libpthread/.
