Nice document!

One thing I'm missing:

The pthread libraries change probably requires people to recompile things=20
linked to it if they're migrating from 4.x - users updating from 5.x-Releas=
es=20
can get away with setting up libmap.conf (maybe this is true for updating=20
from 4.x as well, can some threads expert comment on it?).
