<h3 class="section">4.6 Implementing THREADPRIVATE construct</h3>

<p>In _most_ cases we can map this directly to <code>__thread</code>.  Except
that OMP allows constructors for C++ objects.  We can either
refuse to support this (how often is it used?) or we can 
implement something akin to .ctors.
</p>
<p>Even more ideally, this ctor feature is handled by extensions
to the main pthreads library.  Failing that, we can have a set
of entry points to register ctor functions to be called.
