Hi Georg,

My 32-bit Xen machine would constantly complain if I'd boot a domU  
without disabling /lib/tls first.
However, booting domUs on my AMD64/x86_64 machine, it didn't  
complain. In fact, on my dual opteron machine, all my domU's have  
NPTL on and I don't really notice a significant speed penalty. Even  
on my 32-bit machine I have one domU that has NTPL on (to run Zimbra)  
and it works fine. It doesn't cause any trouble.
As for #3, I'm not sure if I understand the problem.
