Fix BZ #16634.
An application that erroneously tries to repeatedly dlopen("a.out", ...)
may hit assertion failure:

  Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-tls.c: 474: _dl_allocate_tls_init:
  Assertion `listp != ((void *)0)' failed!

dlopen() actually fails with  "./a.out: cannot dynamically load executable",
but it does so after incrementing dl_tls_max_dtv_idx.

Once we run out of TLS_SLOTINFO_SURPLUS (62), we exit with above assertion
failure.
