Hi, I updated the RFC.
I added benchmark tests on x86_64: Position independent code is the default there and is as fast as non-PIC on IA-32. The initial patch using dynamic TLS gives the same results as on IA-32 with static TLS. I also tested the patch (with a few changes) on Windows Server 2008 with IIS (older Windows cannot use TLS in LoadLibrary()-loaded DLLs). This works as expected, but there are still some restrictions.
