[cxx-abi-dev] thread_local summary

[Tian, Xinmin]

Jason, 

For the Intel compilers, we do have two implementations, the default one 
is -openmp-threadprivate=legacy which supports dynamic initialization
and destruction of OpenMP threadprivate variables. 

Under the -openmp-threadprivate=compat, we do use the __thread mechanism for GCC compatibility. 

I am not on the cxx-abi-dev list. Clark forwarded your question to me.
