This is UML support for TLS, which allows one to fully use NPTL glibc, finally, on a 2.6 host (either x86 or x86_64). This has been happily tested by many users and by us for some times and we've now fixed all known bugs, and tested with different glibc's. So this code can IMHO be merged finally. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
