Native POSIX Thread Library.  A new implementation of threads in the
Linux kernel and in the C library (glibc), which conforms better to
the POSIX standard and scales better to thousands of threads but
unfortunately breaks quite a lot of existing code.  Currently
scheduled for release with Linux 2.6, but backported into 2.4 by Red
Hat.
