Thank you for the quick reply. 
The following is a minimal example for triggering the error:

#include <pthread.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
__thread int tls=0;

void* fnc(void *arg);

int main(int argc,char**argv)
{
   pthread_t thread1;
   pthread_create(&thread1,0,fnc,0);

   printf("main tls= %d\n",tls);
   return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

void* fnc(void *arg)
{
   int i;
   for(i=0;i<100;i++)
     tls++;
   printf("thread %d, tls= %d\n",pthread_self(),tls);
}

Compiling with 
>> qcc -V3.3.5,gcc_ntox86  -S tls_minimal.c
on qnx 6.3.2 works.
However 
>> gcc tls_minmal.s 
>> qcc -V2.95.3,gcc_ntox86  -S tls_minimal.c
>> as  tls_minimal.s
all fail. 

Will "__thread" be supported in the upcoming release (6.4.0 with gcc
4.2)?

Sincerely,

Thomas Buschmann
