--- Comment #2 from David Majnemer <david.majnemer at gmail.com> ---
There are many things we could do to make this code compile and execute
correctly. Off of the top of my head:
- We could export the tls_index that the variable lives in and utilize that
when we reference the variable.
- We could create a thunk for the variable in all translation units which
define the variable.  The underlying variable would be thread local but not
exported; instead, we would export the thunk. All access to the variable would
go through the wrapper.  This is strikingly similar to the Itanium
thread-wrapper ABI.

Seeing as how MSVC will not accept this code, I see no reason to go through
heroics to make this work.

Fixed in r219049.
