Hi!
I'm agree with you, but actually TSRM does more that just allocating and storing globals. For instance it keeps track of constructors and destructors so that it can call them automatically when a new thread starts or stops. It also allows to retrieve the globals of an other thread, etc.
OK, so we still need to register ctors/dtors, but we don't need to access globals in a roundabout way anymore.
