Summary

TLS on powerpc64 works fine on a modern compiler, as far as I can tell.

Switching over will cause a glitch though -- you need to run installworld twice because grep will start crashing halfway through on the first run due to RuneLocale. A second installworld cleans this up though.

As such, we may want to do this one during ELFv2 flag day.
