I did however nptl/uclibc builds we need TLS support to be enabled
and there is no way to differentiate the triplets for a NPTL uclibc
toolchain from non NPTL toolchain. In future not all arches will get
NPTL support
on uclibc at once so we wil have few arches where NPTL will be there and
that will require TLS whereas others will use Linux Threads and will
have to disable TLS.
