If you use --disable-sanity-checks then you should expect a library
incompatible with the standard ABI (and so expect ABI tests to fail).
In general, all you need to have abilists for different configurations is
suitable sysdeps directories for each configuration. While you *could*
put the files in nptl/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/<arch>, so leaving
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/<arch> for a non-NPTL version, I don't think that
really makes sense; I think it's better to put the files for the standard
configurations directly in sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/<arch>.
