POSIX TSD has a "concept" of PTHREAD_DESTRUCTOR_ITERATIONS (the value 
must be at least 4). This is meant to solve the problem of dependencies
without imposing any order on TSD destructors invocation chain. MS 
should fix their TLS and have at least 5 PTHREAD_DESTRUCTOR_ITERATIONS 
(one can be used to for their C/C++ runtime ;-) ).
