It's unclear what purpose thread-local storage serves in this context. You already have a Dwarf *. I would consider adding some sort of clone function which creates a shallow Dwarf * with its own embedded allocator or something like that. This assumes that memory allocation is actually a performance problem, otherwise you could let malloc handle the details.
