Has there been any follow-up on this? I'm interested in this, because I'm trying to build Linux From Scratch 6.3 under the upcoming Firmware Linux 0.9.1, which means I'm trying to build glibc under uClibc. And current versions of glibc won't even cross compile from a host that doesn't support TLS. (Yeah, I know it's broken. It's maintained by the FSF.) I can't provide a working uClibc development environment for a target and then tell people "building glibc, if you want it, is your problem" if I myself can't make it work. So I need this. I note that the original paper on TLS is: http://people.redhat.com/drepper/tls.pdf Which might help...
