There's always time to play

Don't you, forget about me...

The title was this time sung by the nptl useflag. On a new Gentoo server install I set -* and forgot about nptl and nptl-only for glibc, so glibc was build with linuxthreads instead of nptl. Not much of a problem you probably think, but there seems to be some bug in mysql that when running on amd64 with linuxthreads it just won't stop... Killing by hand won't stop mysql either, unless I use -9. So from now on I'll remember to put nptl and nptl-only in my useflags...
