For the record (since I think we only talked about this on IRC):

    the TLS for the main thread, probably something to do with our
    custom linker script, since it does work OK for system emulation)
  * if I recall correctly from IRC it doesn't compile on OpenBSD

so for 1.0 perhaps we need to fall back to a simpler set of patches
that just avoid the regression in thread support for linux-user ?

I agree.
