fix over-alignment of TLS, insufficient builtin TLS on 64-bit archs
a conservative estimate of 4*sizeof(size_t) was used as the minimum
alignment for thread-local storage, despite the only requirements
being alignment suitable for struct pthread and void* (which struct
pthread already contains). additional alignment required by the
application or libraries is encoded in their headers and is already
applied.

over-alignment prevented the builtin_tls array from ever being used in
dynamic-linked programs on 64-bit archs, thereby requiring allocation
at startup even in programs with no TLS of their own.
