Subject: glibc dynamic thread local storage issues

in case somebody needs an argument why the musl dynamic linker
is safer, i listed some of the glibc tls handling issues
(see Current design bugs section):

https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2016-11/msg01026.html

(this is far from covering all dynamic linker bugs in glibc, only
code paths related to a particular pthread_create vs dlopen data
race were analyzed that i was trying to fix before.)
