Support for TLS in CrossOver

[Mike Hearn]

Hi Alexandre,

I noticed the ChangeLog for the new CXOffice release (congrats on that
btw!) said it now works with all glibc 2.3 variants. Does that mean the
TLS related named pipe breakage we saw earlier is now fixed? If so, do you
know when the fix will be in WineHQ CVS?

thanks -mike

Parts of it are merged already, I'm working on the rest. It still
needs a bit of work because the current implementation in Crossover
depends on a wrapper script that we don't have in WineHQ. Also note
that you will need to use --with-nptl to make things work on a TLS
glibc.

Any developments/news on doing this test dynamically?

Still working on it, I'm hoping to have it working by next release,
but no guarantees...
