AFAIK RH took NPTL out of Enterprise 4, in favor of Linux threads.
Not true, more on the contrary:

Fedora Core 5 will also drop LinuxThreads support:
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/release-notes/fc4/
"Important
FC5 will not have LinuxThreads support and all programs have to be converted to use NPTL by then."
And it won't be supported for 2.4 series of glibc ( http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2005-07/msg00001.html ).
