You may want to keep them in place for FC3 and CentOS,
since db4 locking is only per-process without TLS !

With the segment flipping code, the only disadvantage
of having /lib/tls in place is performance - I have
not seen any stability problems.

Ian, would it be an idea to change the big WARNING to
print something else ?
