Hi all,
I've just committed the first major step to TLS support on NetBSD.
The SPARC part is not complete at the moment, since it requires some
changes to the assembler code I can't test. What is needed should be
approximately:
(1) Making sure that G7 of userland is properly preserved across system
calls and in the kernel, as well as assembler routines in libc.
(2) Remove the #if 0 around __HAVE___LWP_GETPRIVATE_FAST in types.h.

After a rebuild of libpthread, the ATF test cases for libpthread should
still work.

Somebody(tm) should fix the failing test cases for libpthread before we start
this ;-)
