+// Design information on TLS - AH 2002-07-18
+//
+// Windows TLS is very restricted in size. We implement it the same way as NT -
+// as part of the thread's TEB. We do not use the OS/2 TLS facilities directly.
+// The only part we use OS/2 TLS for is to store the thread's TEB pointer.
+// We fully support .tls sections in PE modules with this method.
