I know it does, the question is *how* it does it.

>From what I saw, all the nptl Makefile does is set the libpthread
binaries as prerequisites of its tests. Is there some magic somewhere
that uses this to link to libpthread? If so, how does it work, and
what exactly should I write?

Also, what about static linking? Does the 'build-shared' variable tell
how to link against libpthread in all the Makefiles?
