You're providing a new OS with new build system, tools, etc. TLS is entirely a legacy application backwards compatibility hack designed to support badly designed C applications. It has no function in new code and should NOT be supported in an OS layer that doesn't need to support broken legacy apps. Threads already have local storage -- their stacks. That's all you need. -- John Skaller <skaller at users dot sf dot net> Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net
