Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH glibc 1/4] glibc: Perform rseq(2) registration at nptl init and thread creation (v4)

Yes.  In general, we want to avoid to force libraries which do not
create threads to link against libpthread, and try to provide interfaces
which are required for synchronization within libc.
