I had a very hard time following this.

The absolute first thing you need to do is modify binutils to
be able to handle this.  Once you do that, you can show me the
assembly code you'd write for accessing tls variables both in
the main executable and dllimported from a dll (if that's even
possible).

Once you do that, I can show you the parts of the x86 backend
that need changing.
