<note><para>NPTL requires the kernel to be compiled with GCC-3.x, in this case
&gcc-version;. It is not recommended to compile the kernel with GCC-2.95.x, as
this causes failures in the Glibc test suite. Normally, this wouldn't be
mentioned as LFS doesn't build GCC-2.95.x. Unfortunately, the kernel
documentation is outdated and still claims GCC-2.95.3 is the recommended
compiler.</para></note>
