Issue ID: 21186
Summary: Inline Assembler: static (thread-local) variables

D2 code, static (thread-local) variables can't be used in ASM:
void main() {
static size_t x = 10;
asm {
mov EDI, x;
}
}
It produces:
object.Error: Access Violation
They work using __gshared, this gives no errors:
void main() {
__gshared static size_t x = 10;
asm {
mov EDI, x;
}
}
My suggestion is to remove this source of errors. One solution may be to
disallow the direct access to static variables from asm code, avoiding this
bug.
