This is the information I was looking for.

Hmmm, I suppose I could. That would require possibly modifying the test,
which is not a big deal. The other reason for asking the question, and I
should have been more explicit, was to see if we wanted to match the
behavior of glibc with dlopen and it sounds like dlclose as well. That
is probably too big of a change from what you are saying. I will go with
modifying the TLS tests effected. Thanks for the input everyone.
