I don't see how it can be modified "pretty easily". You don't
need native TLS, but as far as I can see you basically need to
do, in the runtime, what the dynamic linker is already doing.
Currently, the compiler just calls ___tls_get_addr(void *p) to
get the thread local copy of a global. If that function signature
is altered to take a pointer to the image as well, the problem is
solved.
