Dear Mike Zick,

BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_NPTL is only 30 characters, which is less
than 1/2 the line length limit :)

No, indeed not.

I don't like this, because it's not very expressive. I could reduce it
to BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_NPTL indeed, but I find
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_THREADS_NPTL to be more expressive. Do others have
different opinions?

Thanks,

Thomas
