If binutils were in use (which doesn't seem to be the case from the g++
-v output), you'd be right: before my patches that went into binutils
2.21, gld cannot have worked with static TLS on Solaris 2:

    Properly align static TLS segments on Solaris 2

        http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00291.html

    Properly align static TLS segments on Solaris 2/SPARC
        http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00348.html

I'll add a corresponding caveat to the GCC 4.6 installation docs.
