* It is now possible to install audit libraries for the dynamic linker using
LD_AUDIT. Implemented by Ulrich Drepper.
+
+* The LinuxThreads add-on, providing pthreads on Linux 2.4 kernels, is no
+ longer supported. The new NPTL implementation requires Linux 2.6 kernels.
+ For a libc and libpthread that works well on Linux 2.4 kernels, we
+ recommend using the stable 2.3 branch.
