To get --with-tls --without-__thread working, you just need to have
binutils working (I'd strongly suggest adding testcases for all
the possible sequences and transitions as IA-32, x86-64 and now IA-64
binutils TLS ports have).
The next step then is --with-tls --with-__thread, where gcc needs to
work too.
