XChat uses gmodule - part of glib - to load plugins. I looked

Does your dummy C host application also use gmodule to load the
dll.. that might be a useful experiment perhaps.

I tried this, and the results are illuminating.
I added gmodule support to the C host, enabling switching between
using gmodule and direct WinAPI at the switch of a preprocessor
define.
When the WinAPI is used directly, they get their correct
initializers like before (I included some variables with explicit
initializers too, like void* test3 = cast(void*)1).
When gmodule is used, the test TLS variables contain garbage! The
garbage values are different every time the program runs.
I'll look closer at what gmodule is doing.
