The team produced the NPTL builds since the book went to press. They
obviate the need to revert to the old threading model. Just install and go.

If your particular distro of RH 9 has problems with NPTL, you could still
reinstall with the non-NPTL build and use the reversion technique.
"Problem" in this context means the server will hang if more than one user
tries to connect; or it will hang with one user connected if the GC thread
tries to start. I haven't heard of anyone having this problem with RH 9 and
the NPTL build, though.
