I know you have. The problem is that there might be necessary to do some
changes to the compiler. That doesn't mean there is a bug.
DMD implements its own TLS on OS X because the OS X C compiler says "not
implemented" when you try to create TLS variables. I had no other option.
Yeah, I know. I'm not complaining.
The OS X TLS implementation is all done in druntime.
Not 100%. I'm thinking of the __tls_get_addr function which the compiler
calls:
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/druntime/blob/master/src/core/thread.d#L4549
That function needs to know which image the given address belongs to. I
think that the compiler needs to supply that, in addition to the
address, but I'm not sure. If it does it requires a change in the compiler.
I can add this to bugzilla.
Nevertheless, this does not impact Linux nor FreeBSD.
Mac OS X is my main platform. It's natural that I try to get it to work
there first.
